Research collaboration and women in science have been widely studied for half a century. 

However, the gender context of academic science has changed substantially, with more female scientists entering the higher education sector every decade, increasingly occupying high academic positions.

In this talk, Professor Marek Kwiek will explore the man-woman collaboration in research in this changing context. He will discuss the examination of male-female collaboration practices of all internationally visible Polish university professors, based on their 160,000 Scopus-indexed publications.

The study examined the propensity to conduct same-sex collaboration across male-dominated, female-dominated, and gender-balanced disciplines.
