Abstract
Organized by the ISH Communications Committee, this session will feature two mini-debates focused on emerging controversies in academic/biomedical research. Our first debate will focus on the role of social media in an academic career and how this should be assessed in performance reviews. Dr. Anastasia Mihailidou (Australia) will argue the Pro perspective and Dr. Erika Jones (South Africa) will argue the Con. The second debate will focus on the increasing use of pre-prints in dissemination of research. Dr. Dylan Burger (Canada) will argue the Pro perspective while Dr. Swapnil Hiremath (Canada) will argue the Con. The session will emphasize effective communication in discussing these controversies and will feature a TED-style format and a more relaxed atmosphere than conventional debates. It will also include members of the Communications Committee as Panel discussants
