While we're talking about #WomenInScience & #COVID19Women & "heroes" of #scicomm, I want to give a big shout-out to @wcassias & @sidneymbell from @nextstrain.
Our #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 Situation Reports & their translations reach >500,000 views per week!
1/7
This is a *team effort* & many people are involved at all stages here - in particular contributions often come from myself, @hamesjadfield @nicfelm & @LouiseHMoncla.
HOWEVER Sidney & Cassia are absolutely integral in coordinating this effort & pushing these out every week!
2/7
We are *proud* to be part of a team at Nextstrain, & no one of us could do this alone. We use @nextstrain because it helps to recognise the *team* contributions (particular from dev & code) that go into making this possible - not just the pretty-picture end results!
3/7
However, the flip side of this is that the individual exemplary role of members are a bit hidden from the public view.
*Particularly* at a time when we are talking about who our #scicomm "heroes" are for #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 - I want these ladies to get a bit of limelight!
5/7
All of @nextstrain - & all of our team - have done *incredibly* the last 3 months, continuously tackling new issues & increasing efficiency. I would like to highlight everyone & their contributions, when I have the chance!
6/7
But today - here are some #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 #COVID19Women Heroes of #SciComm - helping @nextstrain have a reach of *hundreds of thousands* through their hard work - @sidneymbell & @wcassias!
Thank you both!! 🙌🏻👏🏻🎉👩🏻💻
