Resum

Scientific collaboration is the social process by which two or more researchers work together sharing their intellectual and ma-terial resources to produce new scientific knowledge. In this paper, a historical overview is made from the beginning of scientific collaboration, considering the factors involved in this process, the danger that the pressure to increase the curriculum contrib-utes to the fragmentation of biomedical research and the role of "invisible colleges". The first-generation of scientific collabora-tion indicators are also listed and described, including the number and rate of co-authored papers, the co-author index or collab-oration index, and the indicators of institutional collaboration.
