Main
Collaboration implies the joint work with other scientists at least on the Colleague level on the production of scientific knowledge usually in the form of co-authored publications. Collaboration networks may be expanded through mobility.
The role of collaboration in constructing research careers is described in a range of empirical literature. Collaboration has variously been shown to provide access to skills, tacit knowledge, funding or research infrastructure (Katz & Martin, 1997[1]; Melin, 2000[2]; Beaver, 2001[3]) and to be motivated by the desire to mentor junior researchers (Bozeman & Gaughan, 2011[4]; Melin, 2000[2]; Beaver, 2001[3]) and to acquire prestige by association (Crane, 1972[5]; Katz & Martin, 1997[1]). However, a theoretical understanding of careers and collaboration remain relatively implicit in most such studies, with notable exceptions (Merton, 1973[6]).
Studies
Collaboration is one of the topics of the GlobSci Study.
