They combine that with Symplur Signals’ contextualized social listening capabilities to craft high-performing content, communication, and engagement strategies. And, health communication professionals at medical societies rely on our precision analytics and attractive graphic representations when reporting up the chain of command.
Symplur Signals performs tasks and answers questions no generic tool can because it combines the best of both worlds. Hand curation and crowdsourcing ensure unparalleled healthcare subject matter expertise; machine learning and algorithms provide endless scalability.

Social Media Analytics for Medical Societies
The healthcare community uses Twitter to access and publicly share and discuss valuable, disease-specific information: this creates conversations to the tune of billions of healthcare tweets. How do you sift through all that data to surface the exact information you need (plus the information you didn’t even know you needed) in a matter of minutes? How do you reap insights from and manage your Twitter presence in the midst of all that potential noise? How do you learn what your target audiences—your members, the public—value, how they talk about a given health topic, and where they convene online?
