The share of scientific publications involving international collaboration in epidemiology in India is forecasted to remain relatively stable from 2024 to 2028, showing a slight decline from 19.66% to 19.6%. Comparing this to 2023, where the exact figure is unavailable, suggests a marginal downward trend. Year-on-year variations are minimal, with a minor decrease in percentages each year, indicating a slow deceleration in international collaboration rates. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is approximately zero, confirming a stable but slightly declining trend.

Future trends to watch for include:

Shifts in policy or funding that promote global partnerships may counteract stagnation.
Technological advances facilitating virtual collaboration could potentially increase international co-authorship.
Global health challenges may spur more international collaboration as inter-country research initiatives grow.
