Reading and writing constitute essential practices in learning, research and scientific communication.

Objective:

To identify the key theories and concepts about college reading and writing appropriate to support the academic-research training of health professionals.

Method:

A bibliographic review was developed (October 2022 - April 2023), based on the following phases: information search, evaluation, analysis and synthesis.Keywords were used combined in different search equations: research training, research skills, science communication, communication skills, reading, writing.238 documents were located;131 were excluded based on the determined criteria.

Development:

The main contributions were determined in the evaluation phase, through recurring readings and analysis sheets.In the analysis phase, content sheets were prepared with the main concepts, after grouping the articles into thematic groups.In the synthesis phase, the main theoretical approaches were identified.The resulting body of ideas is organized as follows: reading and writing in academic-research training, literacy and academic literacy, reading and critical thinking, academic writing and reading and writing in digital environments.

Final considerations:

There is sufficient theoretical background to support scientific communication in the academic-research training of health professionals.The possibility of pedagogically supporting communicative interaction in the appropriation of information and the construction of knowledge in disciplinary contexts is confirmed.
