This is a sample of the kind of social media posts that we encourage members to send our Social Media team.

This kind of post calls out important dates and anniversaries that mark milestones in science, such as birthdays of prominent scientists, anniversaries of natural phenomena (e.g., volcanic eruptions), or discoveries. Each post should include 1-3 photos. Large, high resolution photos are best. The social media team will format them for each platform.
