Plain language is communication that people can easily understand at first reading. Plain language does not use jargon or slang, but simple words and terms to make a topic more relatable and meaningful. In this workshop, real life examples of study abstracts are reviewed to revise them using plain language. We explore the Plain Language in Research Project that is a qualitative study, learning about various communities in Western New York and how to communicate with them in plain language. Tips on plain language and how to reduce barriers to research and communication are outlined in a Guide to Plain Language in Research.
