The use of research results and knowledge as well as the application of scientifi discoveries in the real world do not occur naturally. Academic institutions and governments have defied that the research translation is a priority for health: decisions should be based on scientifi evidence to improve health. However, the gap between science and practice, the natural and created barriers between them show that the knowledge translation is a process that has to be implemented. The ways to do it involve attitudes in both academic, managerial and political environment, which are a issue quite complex and diffiult to solve. This paper proposes to understand the topic by reading some authors of the health fild. We give a special attention to the concepts, the available models and we analyze how the exchange of evidence between science and decision makers takes place and how the evidence is used.
