Hello all I have begun a research project exploring how academics (or university professors in North American parlance) are using social media (or not) as part of their professional work in higher education. As the initial phase of the study, which will also include qualitative interviews at a later phase, I have devised a brief online survey that takes about 5 minutes to complete. If you would like to complete it, please find the link here<https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/B8JWPRB> . Many thanks Deborah -- Deborah Lupton *From 10 February 2014: Centenary Research Professor* *Faculty of Arts and Design, University of Canberra* *New email: deborah.lupton@canberra.edu.au <deborah.lupton@canberra.edu.au>* *New books*: *Medicine as Culture* (3rd revised edition, Sage, 2012); *Fat* (Routledge, 2012); *Risk* (2nd revised edition, Routledge, 2013); *The Social Worlds of the Unborn* (2013, Palgrave Macmillan); *The Unborn Human*(edited) (2013, Open Humanities Press).
