• To ensure access to health communication, attention must be paid to the needs of all audiences. As scientists working in a highly technical organization, we often focus more on methods and findings without giving the same thought to how we convey messages and the communication needs of specific audiences. In this essay, we outline how we learned a great deal about communications during the planning and execution of a Public Health Grand Rounds (PHGR). This PHGR gave us a chance to pause and consider what was most important: our public health messages, making them relevant and understandable, ensuring they were informative and actionable, and maximizing accessible outlets and methods for disseminating our messages.
