The share of scientific publications in Pathology and Forensic Medicine involving international collaboration in the UK has shown a promising upward trend. By 2023, it reached a point just below 30%. The subsequent years, from 2024 to 2028, forecast a steady increase, with an annual growth rate averaging at about 0.8% CAGR. This indicates a healthy expansion of international collaborative efforts in this niche. Particularly noticeable is the consistent year-on-year increase, reflecting an ongoing commitment to global cooperation in research.

Trends to watch for include the potential impacts of global geopolitical shifts, changes in research funding models, and the evolution of digital collaboration platforms. These could either incentivize or challenge the current trajectory of international collaboration.
