The share of scientific publications in Germany involving international collaboration in pathology and forensic medicine is forecasted to experience a gradual upward trend from 21.9% in 2024 to 21.98% in 2028, reflecting a steady increase over this period. In 2023, the share was established as the baseline. Year-on-year variations indicate minimal percentage growth, while the five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a consistent, albeit slow, increase in international collaboration.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential impacts of international policies on research collaborations.
Evolving digital tools that facilitate cross-border scientific communication and partnerships.
Increased focus on global research initiatives could further drive international publications.
