Dear All,
Welcome to this discussion. Here we will discuss about the best practices for making international author collaboration (IAC) s.
Some of the considerable points are needed to know before making IAC, like:
Which country to collaborate?
- Academic background and status of the institute and contributors?
- Funding availability?
- What is her ability to work well with other team members, particularly at a distance, across national boundaries?
- International laws and policies?
- If there is a legal issue then how o fix it?
and the most important
- Obstacles in establishing the international relationship?
Please give your valuable opinion.
I have achieved very successful collaboration with researchers from different countries, thanking to Researchgate. We have published articles, we do have projects. Here are some examples.

Five tips to make the most of your academic collaborations
Research collaborations offer solutions to many unanswered questions in academia. Other than furthering science, collaborations are highly desirable for researchers in order for them to develop a healthy and productive collaborative network, share new research ideas and develop a diverse set of skills, all resulting in an increase in publication output. Yet, given the multiple parties, goals and expectations, collaborative projects are more susceptible to failure when compared to individual undertakings...

Congratulations Prof. Ljubomir! I have also enjoyed and still enjoys some research and project collaborations here on RG! I think for all to be able to enjoy this privilege, we must be active always in research discussions and make ourselves available to such opportunities while being diligent on our assigned tasks on projects/studies to enjoy perpetual collaborations.
Dear all,
this is an interesting question!
And thnk you for giving positive examples...
i think the answer is stongly dependent from the science subject you are working in.
As a former biologist I changed into international customs law and both subjects are extremely different. Whereas in natural sciences international cooperation is normal and authorship larger (in biology often 4-8 authors, in physical scinces up to 30 or even more than 50 authors) in law I am mosty a looner though pais of authors are also seen...
All in all I also think, that Researchgate is a very helpful tool for displaying and finding research. In my case I have tried to find collaborations but not found one yet....
In fact it is our work, which makes us known to other workers. Its a good idea to have collaboration with other workers, here I don't think any legal issue or binding is there, until we are not sharing some material(biological). Similarly, people will start following you once they feel that our research fields have some common issues or our research creates some interest in them. I feel that we need to develop a mechanism wherein I, for example, am able to correlate my work say on insect diversity or on air pollution , with the work of other researchers in any other field and develop a common collaborative publication, which takes into consideration different areas and has a higher research impact.
Dear Dr. Vinod
This is a very important discussion and I believe that researchgate is the best platform to discuss and collaborate with a scientist from the respective field.
Practical Advice on International Research Collaboration
Researchers who effectively collaborate with colleagues in other countries can greatly enrich their intellectual efforts. The forms these joint activities may take are numerous and varied, depending on many factors, including the project timeframe, as well as the intensity this intended relationship may take, whether that be shared communication, cooperation, coordination or collaboration. Here are a few ways for academic scholars to begin to think about how to go about improving the prospects of putting into place more frequent or higher quality experiences of research together across national borders: ....

You are welcome dear Prakash Chandra Joshi . Thanks for your comment about my contribution.
We established international collaboration and published research article. Collaboration helped us to widen the scope of the study. Thank you researchgate.
