Who shapes plant biotechnology in Germany? Joint analysis of the evolution of co-authors’ and co-inventors’ networks

摘要: The interdependence of science and technology has been high interest for researchers from different fields several decades now. As they represent means knowledge output protection, patents research articles generally have reasons creation audiences. However, some the inventors may be interested in making an impact on scientific community vice versa. This interaction between space (patents) (articles) is especially important high-technology fields, where both institutions enterprises play roles innovative environment. paper investigates case German plant biotechnology. With help network analysis tools, evolution co-evolution co-inventors’ co-authors’ networks period 1995–2015 explored. Finally, topics papers overlap were analyzed with text mining tools order to identify differences science/technology their overlap. a result, sizable nature advancement are observed two types. Although these spheres activities increased over time, role author-inventors played or varied.
