“…International collaborations have been increasing since the emergence of the Internet in the 1990s (Olechnicka et al., 2019 ; National Science Board [NSB], 2020 ; Marginson, 2022 ), yet global collaborations in ecology and evolution still face numerous barriers (e.g., Smith et al., 2023 ) that have hindered the advancement of interdisciplinary research in urban ecology and evolution (Verrelli et al., 2022 ; Westman & Broto, 2022 ). For example, access to research and scientific resources has been a major issue, as researchers from low‐income countries often lack the necessary funds to access paid journals or attend international conferences (Petersen, 2021 ).…”

Urban evolutionary ecology is inherently interdisciplinary. Moreover, it is a field with global significance. However, bringing researchers and resources together across fields and countries is challenging. Therefore, an online collaborative research hub, where common methods and best practices are shared among scientists from diverse geographic, ethnic, and career backgrounds would make research focused on urban evolutionary ecology more inclusive. Here, we describe a freely available online research hub for toolkits that facilitate global research in urban evolutionary ecology. We provide rationales and descriptions of toolkits for: (1) decolonizing urban evolutionary ecology; (2) identifying and fostering international collaborative partnerships; (3) common methods and freely‐available datasets for trait mapping across cities; (4) common methods and freely‐available datasets for cross‐city evolutionary ecology experiments; and (5) best practices and freely available resources for public outreach and communication of research findings in urban evolutionary ecology. We outline how the toolkits can be accessed, archived, and modified over time in order to sustain long‐term global research that will advance our understanding of urban evolutionary ecology.

“…Therefore, when analyzing the impact of spatial heterogeneity on industrial outputs, we cannot ignore the spatial dimension. Although there is no consensual explanation for the scientific definition of space in theoretical circles (Sack, 1974; Montello and Sutton, 2006; Wither, 2009; Liu et al, 2017; Olechnicka et al, 2019; Komilova et al, 2021), the recognition of the existence of “space” and “spatial attributes” is surprisingly consistent, and gives “space” various natural, social and economic attributes (Haining, 2003). Bourdieu (1998) believed that space itself does not have practical significance, and it is important only when human economic and social activities give it a corresponding position.…”

“…Global innovation activities are increasingly taking place through cross-country collaboration networks (Elia et al. , 2020), as international co-authored scientific research and co-patented inventions have been steadily growing (Cantner and Rake, 2014; Scherngell et al. , 2020; Olechnicka et al.…”

PurposeThis paper examines the role of co-inventor collaboration with China and/or the USA on a country's increase in centrality in global knowledge networks. It also explores the role of specific institutional factors – corruption and intellectual property rights (IPR) protection – on this relationship.Design/methodology/approachIn the study, co-inventor data from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) applications have been used to construct networks of technological knowledge collaboration at the country level over the years 2002–2015. Using eigenvector centrality as the dependent variable, the study uses fixed effect regression analyses on a panel of 171 countries, contributing to recent debates on knowledge networks and international cooperation.FindingsBuilding on research in economic development, innovation and social network theory, this research finds that co-patenting with Chinese inventors is positively related to a country's centrality in global knowledge networks and that this relationship is negatively moderated by collaboration with the current most central knowledge network – namely that of the USA – suggesting a substitution effect. It also finds a partial substitution between institutional factors, IPRs protection and transparency, and collaboration with China on a country's knowledge centrality.Practical implicationsRegarding policymakers, the findings can be used to encourage international collaboration for increased access to new sources of knowledge that fosters innovation while keeping a close eye on local institutions, especially emerging economies that want to increase their international knowledge network centrality.Originality/valueThis study creates a unique panel data set and extends the social networks approach in international business literature, focusing on institutional characteristics related to participation in knowledge networks.
