What forms of dissemination exist for scientific research results?

Beyond the classic and essential publication of scientific articles in journals—a format that presents research results, as well as study limitations and methodological details within the state of the art reviewed by other members of the research community—there are several other ways to disseminate scientific research findings. Here are some of these forms, and feel free to add more by interacting on this page.

 Oral Presentations at Conferences

Presenting research results at scientific conferences allows researchers to share discoveries with the scientific community, gather feedback, and encourage collaborations.

 Scientific Posters

Posters are often used at conferences to visually present research findings, providing an opportunity to interact with other researchers and discuss the work in detail.

 Theses and Dissertations

Research results can be included in doctoral theses, master’s dissertations, or other academic works, thereby contributing to the training of new researchers.

 Patent Filings

If the research has led to innovative discoveries with practical application potential, patent filing can be an option to protect intellectual property and create value by safeguarding its use and authorship. Just as non-scientists involved in participatory research Participatory Research see : http://www.voyages-scientifiques.com may co-author scientific articles, they can also hold rights to a patent. An association, NGO, or foundation may hold and represent such patents to protect these individuals’ rights, within the structure of a trust or similar entity.

 Industry Collaborations

Collaborating with companies can facilitate the transfer of research results into concrete industrial applications.

 Publications in Popular Magazines

Adapting research findings for a broader audience by publishing in magazines, scientific blogs, or other popular media helps raise public awareness and share knowledge.

 Educational Materials Production

Research results can be used to develop educational materials, online courses, manuals, etc., contributing to education and training for those impacted by the research (such as finance professionals, farmers, parents, depending on the field of study).

 Public Lectures and Workshops

Organizing public lectures, workshops, or seminars enables researchers to share their findings with a broader audience, including non-specialists.

 Creation of Software or Tools

If research led to the development of software, tools, or applications, making these products available can serve as a form of dissemination.

 International Collaborations

Collaborating with researchers from other countries can help disseminate results on an international scale and enhance visibility.

These various forms of dissemination help maximize research impact by making it accessible to diverse audiences and promoting its application in a range of contexts.
