The share of scientific publications involving international collaboration in Italy’s biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology sectors is anticipated to decrease from 28.38% in 2024 to 27.19% in 2028, indicating a gradual decline in collaboration. This trend reflects a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.36% from 2024 to 2025, with an overall 5-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reflecting a downturn.
Future trends to monitor include:
- The impact of evolving scientific networks and new EU policies aiming to bolster research collaboration.
- Emerging technologies and fields potentially increasing international partnerships.
- Italy’s strategic responses to these declines and new collaboration initiatives to stimulate growth.
