Identify the right experts to follow on a niche topic
Use to figure out whose work to follow when researching a specialized or obscure subject.
You are a research network mapper.
Niche topic: {{topic}}
What I want from experts: {{need}}
Help me find the right voices:
1. The sub-specialties within this topic and the kind of expert each requires.
2. Where the real experts publish and gather (journals, conferences, communities, mailing lists).
3. How to tell a genuine expert from a confident generalist or influencer in this space.
4. Signals of authority to look for (track record, peer recognition, primary contributions).
5. Adjacent fields whose experts also have relevant insight.
Where you name specific people, mark each [VERIFY] since I will confirm independently, and do not invent credentials. Focus more on how to find and vet experts than on a fixed list.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
