The idea that research results should be simplified and related to a media logic when being communicated to the public is challenged in a new report on research communication. “It is just as important, if not more so, to provide an understanding of what lies behind the results – of the knowledge and the methods used,” says organisational researcher Anna Jonsson. She has been involved in the recent
