Anàlisi de la comunicació i el periodisme biomèdics. Estudi dels processos divulgatius, els dèficits formatius i l’impacte de la covid-19

Resumen

Scientific communication has evolved a lot in recent years. The interest of scientists and journalists in disseminating information has increased, as has the interest of the society in receiving scientific information. However, there are still problems in getting science to the general population correctly. This thesis analyzes the current situation of scientific dissemination,specifically the biomedical one, and seeks waysto improve it. Seeing itself completely immersed in the Covid-19 pandemic, research has focused on crisis biomedical communication and how it has changed as a result of the onset of the disease. Through interviews and surveys of biomedical communication professionals and biomedical students, several interesting results are revealed: the need to invest more public funds in scientific dissemination, the desire of future biomedical researchers to receive more training in communication and the importance of the bidirectionality of scientific information.
