National Institute for Health Research - plain language summaries
"Every year, thousands of research articles are published in specialist academic journals. These contain vital information about the latest health and care research findings. Open Access policies mean that more and more people can now access those scientific research articles for free. But they’re often lengthy and full of technical language making them difficult to understand.
At NIHR Evidence we aim to bridge that gap and make the findings of the research we fund and support more accessible and understandable. This will help ensure important NIHR research findings can be used by everyone – whether you’re a member of the public, a health or care professional, commissioner or policy maker."
