In the field of research and academic writing; what are the differences between the abstract and the conclusion when preparing to write a research paper?
The abstract is a summary of your study, intended to help people decide whether to read your paper in detail.
The conclusions are how you interpret or find meaning in your findings.
The conclusion (with no "S" on the end) is the final section of your paper.
Here is my recommended structure for a research study paper:

Dear Prof. Michael., thank you for adding your answer, I will read what you are recommended to me.
Simply, in abstract you state your research problem, goal, methodology and most important findings.
In a conclusion you formulate what you identify in findings and relate it to your reseach goal.
Abstract just like opening a book, while conclusion is like closing that book.
In academic writing, in Abstract brief what you have done, including the way of your results finding, the significant results and why it is important,( should be used a present tense verbs)
in conclusion, should have the summary of your work without details and focused on the important finding of the research, using past tense verbs,
Regards
