Inside University of Louisville's largest research partnership: Harvard University

Behind University of Louisville's research output sits a defining relationship: 412 co-authored works with Harvard University (United States) in the five years to 2025, the university's single largest collaboration.

It anchors an unusually connected research base: 936 collaborating institutions across 75 countries, producing 15,871 joint works over the window, with international co-authors on 23% of output.

The collaborative work travels: its field-weighted citation impact stands at 2.57, where the world average is 1.0.

The Research Collaboration Index, the first global account of how universities actually collaborate, published its first full edition on 15 September 2026. The full results are public.
