Abstract

Mobility and migration of researchers in Europe have gained relevance in recent decades. For several years Italy has been recording a growing migration of researchers abroad, which can be estimated at 14,000 people between 2008 and 2019. Various data sources are used here to document the phenomenon and investigate patterns, characteristics and determinants.
