Abstract: Science communication is undergoing a revolution thanks to blogs and social media. However, the bulk of science journalism is still on the shoulders of professional writers, with only a small number of practicing scientists contributing to outreach efforts. Recently, the imaging community has recognized the need for a more coordinated effort to communicate its science to a broader audience. As a result, the blogs of the journal Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (www.ismrm.org/mrm<http://www.ismrm.org/mrm>) and the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (www.humanbrainmapping.org/blog<http://www.humanbrainmapping.org/blog>) have been featured in the Huffington Post, cited in the New York Times, and published by Wiley as a periodical magazine. As the founder of the above blogs, I will discuss their grassroots approach to communicating science, and highlight their potential for recruiting and promoting the next generation of leaders in the field of magnetic resonance imaging.
