Why scientists don’t share

Page 18: Collaboration, Competition and the Global Drivers of Research Collaborative Research: Trends and Future Directions Goddard Space Flight Center Greenbelt,

There is one character trait . . . which is an intrinsic part of a scientist’s culture, and which the public image doesn’t often include: his extreme egocentricity, expressed chiefly in his overmastering desire for recognition by his peers. No other recognition matters. And that recognition comes in only one way. It doesn’t really matter who you are or whom you know. You may not even know those other scientists personally, but they know you—through your publications.

Scientists seek recognition for their work
