What Is Research Commercialization?

Research commercialization communication also involves creating a microsite, where the concerned University lab can host and highlight its ongoing projects. This can be accompanied by professionally crafted e-mails to communicate with industry specialists.

Last, but not the least is the execution and delivery of an eloquent press release to attract and disseminate the research among the targeted audience and to make it more discoverable to the media.Research commercialization is the first step to make one’s research discoverable. It is a method of sharing new research with the academic community. Researchers benefit immensely from communicating their findings with industry partners, and research commercialization seeks to make that possible. Multiple steps are involved in commercialization solutions.

What Is Research Excellence Framework 2021 ?

The Research Excellence Framework is the successor to the Research Assessment Exercise. It is an impact evaluation which assesses the research of British higher education institutions. It was first used in 2014 to assess the period 2008–2013. REF is undertaken by the four UK higher education funding bodies.

Its stated aims are to provide accountability for public investment in research, establish reputation yardsticks", and thereby to achieve an efficient allocation of resources. Critics argue, inter aria, that there is too much focus on the impact of research outside of the university system, and that impact has no real relevance to the quality of research. It is suggested that REF actually encourages mediocrity in published research, and discourages research which might have value in the long term.

Quick Tips for Creating Good Scientific Infographics for Your Research

Infographics can draw readers’ attention to your paper.

Scientific infographics present research in a visually engaging manner. They help readers easily comprehend the essence of a study by generally sharing the salient findings on a single page. If readers like what they see, they will be drawn to a study. Infographics are a powerful tool for presenting critical research findings and for helping readers focus on what is most important.

You need to remember a few things when working on an infographic (either by yourself or with the help of a professional designer).

Prepare a storyboard before the design: Highlight key points of your paper that should be included

Visualize your story: Think about how you would want the information flow, the images you’d want to see, and colors you’d want to see them in.

Focus on simplicity and detail: Stick to simple designs with visually appealing colors and legible fonts.

Impact Science helps researchers effectively communicate their research article to the correct audiences by providing them science communication services. Their team of scientists, illustrator and designers works closely with Publishers to understand their needs and create all relevant media tools.

Here’s a challenge for scientists who want an eye-opening experience in communicating using simple language: Give up 90-plus percent of the thousands of words you rely on in everyday life, but try nonetheless to convey the key concepts and ideas of your science.

That’s what about 30 scientists did last week at a science communication workshop offered by the American Geophysical Union. The workshop was part of the American Meteorological Society’s Summer Policy Colloquium.

Working in four small groups, the attendees used an online editing program called The Up-Goer Five Text Editor to create short, plain-language blurbs about a science topic. The Text Editor rejects words that aren’t among the 1,000 most common ones in the English language.
