South-south collaboration on HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment research: when birds of a feather rarely flock together (FULL-TEXT)
South-south collaboration on health and development research is a critical mechanism for social and economic progress. It allows sharing and replicating experiences to find a “southern solution” to meet shared health challenges, such as access to adequate HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment. This study aimed to generate evidence on the dynamics of south-south collaboration in HIV/AIDS…

MAPPING OF THE BRAZILIAN SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION ON FACILITY LOCATION (full-text)
Mathematical models are relevant to indicate the optimal location of facilities and, consequently, help in the search for efficiency in the supply chain. Although facility location problems are consolidated in the Operational Research field, few publications are dedicated to investigate the profile of the academic production (the amount of paper published), aiming to direct new…

Collaborative Networks as a measure of the Innovation Systems in second-generation ethanol
Ethanol obtained from the conversion process of different types of biomass is a renewable source of fuel and since 2010 it has been classified as an “advanced fuel” by the EPA, due to its contribution to the reduction of the impacts of GHG emissions. Recent literature stresses the importance of the use of second-generation fuels…

Epistemic integration of the European Research Area: The shifting geography of the knowledge base of Finnish research, 1995–2010
The integration of national research systems is one of the central objectives of European research policies. Yet the epistemic objectives of this project have been poorly defined, and scant attention has been paid to whether political, social and financial integration of the European Research Area (ERA) is accompanied by epistemic integration. We discuss the conceptual…
