在科学、技术和创新方面,英国退出(Brexit)对英国和欧盟(EU)的后果仍不确定。然而,毫无疑问,在未来几年,英国将需要重新调整其与其他欧盟国家的科学合作。在这项研究中,我们旨在确定哪些欧盟国家将遭受最大损失,哪些研究领域将受到英国退欧的最大影响。根据科学网索引的每个欧盟国家的科学产出,我们证明了国际科学合作经常涉及英国。我们还根据英国在生产和合作方面的表现定义了四种角色,这些角色对于我们理解英国在欧盟中的地位具有重要意义。从这个意义上说,英国是健康科学的领导者,社会科学的先驱,物理科学的助手,工程的参与者。
In science, technology and innovation, the consequences of Britain’s exit (Brexit) for both Britain and the Europe Union (EU) are still uncertain. However, there is no doubt that in the years to come, the UK will need to re-calibrate its scientific collaborations with other EU countries. In this research, we aim to identify which EU countries would suffer the greatest loss and which research fields would be most affected by Brexit. Based on the scientific output of each EU country, as indexed by the Web of Science, we demonstrate that international scientific collaboration frequently involves the UK. We also define four types of roles according to the UK’s performance in production and collaboration; these roles are of great significance to our understanding of the status of the UK in the EU. In this sense, the UK acted as a leader in health sciences, a pioneer in social sciences, an assistant in physical sciences, and a participant in engineering.
