When polled, 69% of delegates felt insights that inform brand planning are owned by global teams. One key takeaway from Clare Carroll and Rhodri Williams' session was about enabling local teams to input and shape global strategy, not just execute it #ephmra2025 @accenturesong.bsky.social

Great opening panel touching on AI and synthetic data. At 13:15 on Thursday, @d1479.bsky.social will present Building Synthetic Participants - leveraging #GenAI to bring the customer to life and deliver. Should be very interesting to hear from those already doing this #ephmra2025

As #syntheticdata enters pharma, we need to be careful to label it and avoid it unfairly augmenting real data. It had a place but needs to be used wisely and transparently #ephmra2025

Online conversation during healthcare congress is about the reactions, the opinions, the questions and the sceptics

As #ASCO25 wraps up, here's a look at some major healthcare conferences since late 2024... wait, I thought Bluesky was supposed to be taking over? Well, is more nuanced than that

Has Bluesky overtaken X as the place to post online during healthcare conferences? No, but it has made significant headway in the last 6-months.

Will Bluesky overtake X as the place to post online during healthcare conferences? Possibly not, but it is here to stay as part of the mix.

Jamie Doggett @jamiedoggett.bsky.social · Jun 4

➡️ Some specialities organised something of a co-ordinated migration to Bluesky, others have just let the chips fall.

➡️ Some conferences have created Bluesky accounts and have actively encouraged participants to take part in the online conversation there, while others are not yet present

There are many factors to consider that affect the platform used for the online healthcare congress conversation.

➡️Some conferences receive global attention, others are more focused on a country or region, Bluesky uptake is more prevalent in some countries than others.

I recently spoke on the Why It Matters podcast discussing why social listening matters.

Traditional research can cost thousands and still miss the people who don’t get a seat at the table.

I love social because it gives a voice to the underdog

In December, #NehpJC hosted journal clubs on both platforms and it was observed that users engaged (liked, commented on and shared posts) twice as much on Bluesky as they did on #Twitter.

On 12th November a simple tweet ‘see you on the other side 🦋’ seemed to mark NephJC's platform transition, but the twice-monthly Journal Club continued posting on Twitter while starting out on #Bluesky.

This is true @careia.bsky.social, I've been interested to see the variance between healthcare specialisms.

I've noticed some medical congresses have shifted towards Bluesky in a serious way, others have stuck to Twitter.

Also, uptake with the various #MedSky hashtags tells an interesting story!
