Analyses of scientific collaboration networks have been widely
explored in researches within different knowledge fields for quite some time,
taking into account its ability to identify how groups of researchers are
performing their work collectively. These studies make it possible to identify
how collaboration occurs between individuals through investigations based on
social network metrics. In this paper, at first, a general characterization of the
analyzed data is presented, and afterward, a temporal analysis of the Brazilian
PhDs scientific collaboration network with registered curricula in the Lattes
Platform is conducted. For this purpose, all their scientific publications were
used for the identification and characterization of the collaboration networks. As
a result, it is possible to visualize how the scientific collaboration of the
analyzed set was intensified over the years, highlighting the areas of activity of
each Brazilian PhD.
