After the #ECSJ2017 conference - follow these key speakers on Twitter
With the conference over, the time has come to let the conference sink in. Follow these speakers and panelists for inspiration.

#ECSJ2017 was a tweeting conference. Social media were an integrated part of the European Conference for Science Journalists 2017 experience. Key slides, messages from speakers and questions from the floor were shared with the outside world, and the hashtag #ECSJ2017 garnered thousands of tweets as delegates interacted virtually through their phones and laptops.
For your inspiration, the #ECSJ2017’s own media team has compiled a list of speakers and panellists that you can follow now the conference is over. The idea is that delegates and anyone else that is interested can scroll down the list and opt to follow some of the people and topics that interest them.
So how did we make this list? We had to make some tough decisions in delimiting it.
First of all, everybody who is on this list was either a panellist, a speaker, or had some active role to play other than being a part of the conference. Second, everyone who is on this list tweeted about the conference while at the conference using the hashtag #ECSJ2017. Third, at least some of their tweets were in English.
Did we miss out some important people you know? Very likely. Let us know about it by messaging to @ECSJ2017 or @MkeYoung.
The list is not ranked, but is alphabetical by first name. All of the Twitter handles are right-clickable, allowing you to easily browse through and make the decision to follow. The info under each name is in most cases the same as in the Twitter bio field.
