摘要：Different types of collaboration, partnership and co-operation (CPC) exist in science and their possible forms can be different depending on the phase of scientific research when it is applied and consequently, on the common goals of participants. Scientific research can be divided into at least three different phases and the success of a scientific research needs the efficient completion of all these phases to take the findings to an acceptable level of publication. At an initial phase, one or more parties have a basic idea or null-hypothesis, in the second phase these parties, together or with other parties, establish and realize a research project to develop an idea or to prove or reject the null-hypothesis. In the final phase, these parties, alone or together with other parties, write and publish the results that emerged from the two previous phases allowing other scientists to be able to use these results and formulate new ideas or hypotheses and start a new cycle of research and CPC. The goal of an international writing CPC in the third phase of scientific research is to successfullypresent the results of a research project or that of the literary work to a broaderscientific community. Different writing CPCs can exist to tackle different research communications, such as original research papers, reviews, opinion papers, among others. In this review paper we show – through personal real case studies and testimonials of writing CPC accumulated over the past 5 years – how international writing collaboration can enhance the success of publication in a very simple but practical way and how it can promote scientific advancement without any ethical misconduct or barriers.
