The ACR uses Twitter to share other information about the its work, such as promoting the release of ACR’s recommendations for the prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, as well as to encourage action on issues, such as asking individuals to contact Congress regarding SGR cuts. We also use it to share information from other organizations or news sources, answer questions from members and others interested in rheumatology, and listen to the conversations affecting the profession and practice of rheumatology.
