#CitSciChat

I'm the founder and moderator of Twitter Q&A sessions about citizen science, sponsored by the awesome SciStarter! The Twitter conversations take place at designated times under the hashtag #CitSciChat. Each #CitiSciChat session brings citizen scientists, project managers, and scientists together to share ideas, knowledge, and resources. We discuss ideas, hot topics, new discoveries, papers, and projects. 

You are invited to join the lively conversations of #CitSciChat by following the hashtag, and follow me @CoopSciScoop. The chats started in January 2015, initially taking place the last Wednesday of every month. With over 200 people around the world engaged in most sessions, we've increased their frequency to every other Wednesday, when possible. See the schedule of themes below.

To involve people across the globe, chats take place on Wednesdays from 7-8pm in London, which is usually 2-3pm ET in USA and Thursday early morning in New Zealand, and sometimes before dawn in Australia.
