Understanding the assembly of interdisciplinary teams and its impact on performance

作者：

Highlights：

• We investigate the assembly and success of interdisciplinary scientific teams.

• People with lower H-index or from lower-tier institutions team up more.

• Higher tenure and prior co-authorship/citation increase likelihood of collaboration.

• More co-authorship but less mutual citations among members leads to team success.

• Having females in teams increases the chance to get NSF grants.
