I do most of my publishing now in academic medicine journals, where long strings of co-authors is the norm. I can only assume that means we are having orgies.
Sigh. Yet more evidence I am in the wrong field... |

Golly. If that's a federal problem, does that mean Interpol (or someone worse) is looking at those who collaborate internationally?

We should consider the quality of collaboration, not just the frequency of opportunities or the number of participants. Hmm, sounds like a research topic. Saaay, merinoblue, meet me in the lab for some hot, guilt-free meta-analysis. I'll bring SPSS; you bring the red wine. |

Does your lab website have photos of its members with a description of their, ahem, research expertise? Do they use mixed methods? |

We are purely quantitative, but I guarantee you'll be impressed by the size of our confidence intervals. |

But I've never worked with purely quantitative collaborators before, so I hope you won't overwhelm me with your tools the first time in. |

Evidently this article has 2512 authors. That would make the mass sex scene in Eyes Wide Shut look like a two teenage couples making out in the same car. Authors 2475 to 2511 are junior researchers in charge of maintaining the author mailinglist, and checking correct spellings of each author's name. 2466 to 2474 are the 8 coordinators of these juniors, one for each research group. 2465 is a professional mediator hired to solve authorship quarrels. |
