What are the channels for communicating research results?

What will be an ideal response?

The channels for communicating research results vary depending on the intended audience. Potential audiences may be divided into three groups: the research community, the stakeholders, and the public. When the intended audience is part of the research community, research results may be communicated through refereed scientific journals, conference presentations, working papers, monographs, and books. Research results may be communicated to stakeholders through reports, symposiums, testimonies, and research notes. (Researchers also communicate research information through the research proposal, although this occurs before there are any results to share.)

To communicate research results to the public, researchers may use media channels such as local and national newspapers, popular magazines and journals, television programs, the internet or social media, and radio talk shows. In addition, special brochures may be prepared that summarize the research and its significant findings. Many government and private research agencies also release fact sheets and issue briefs that summarize major studies or analyses.
