Geriatric Medicine Journal Club (#GeriMedJC)

It has been a long time coming, but to follow in the footsteps of the International Urology Journal Club (#urojc) and the Respirology and Sleep Journal Club (#rsjc), a Geriatric Medicine Journal Club has been born on Twitter! @GeriMedJC was created today and monthly journal club tweet chats will use the hashtag #GeriMedJC.

Now if only @symplur would fix the bug that is currently not allowing the registration of new health care hashtags, metrics and influencers for #GeriMedJC will be available.

This will be a monthly journal club based on the University of Toronto Division of Geriatric Medicine journal club which is held at one of the various academic health sciences centres in Toronto.  Each month two recent papers will be selected for discussion.  The chosen articles will be announced on Twitter in advance.  Dates and times will be announced monthly.  The goal of the tweet chat (#GeriMedJC) will be to complement the discussion at the journal club but to also allow a broader international audience to chime in!

Follow us on Twitter @GeriMedJC !
