# The Who, What, Where, When &amp; Why of Health Care Social Media

Susannah Fox delivered a keynote address to a symposium hosted by the [Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University](http://www.einstein.yu.edu/). She discussed the Pew Research Center’s latest findings related to technology adoption and use in both the U.S. and abroad, with a particular focus on the social impact of the internet on health and health care.

A discussion of the event can be found on her personal blog, [susannahfox.com](http://susannahfox.com/2013/10/21/how-do-we-know-that-social-media-is-important-to-health-care/), and the slides and a video recording are below:
