Abstract
This article provides an overview of the literature in the area of research dissemination, and suggests ways of increasing communication between researchers and clinicians. It then describes a dissemination project based at the Centre for Education and Information on Drugs and Alcohol (CEIDA) which was designed to convey the results of a major research project in the alcohol and other drug area to practitioners in New South Wales. The article includes the development, implementation and evaluation of the project. The format employed—an intensive workshop conducted in different locations—was found to be a useful strategy, particularly when used to promote a large research project of clinical significance and when used in conjunction with other dissemination strategies.
