Sommario/riassunto

Research collaboration is a critical enabler for scientific knowledge production and innovation but poses significant challenges, particularly if it is carried out in a distributed and geographically dispersed fashion.

The author builds on a comprehensive literature review and two empirical studies to elucidate how social research networking sites can be leveraged for various research-related tasks.
