Biomedical Communications illustrates how vital it is for researchers, journalists, and policy makers to clearly communicate their findings in a way that avoids general misconception or confusion. The authors explore how to acquire information about biomedical policy, discuss strategies for informing consumers, and present tactics for improving biomedical communication with the public. TOPICS COVERED: * Using Research to Improve Biomedical Communications * The Public Understanding of Biomedical Science * Strategies for Communications to Consumers * Public Attitudes Toward Biotechnology Issues.
