As a result, researchers and specialists should proceed to more communication and scientific collaboration and co- authorship, because a specialist can hardly overcome all problems in research process. The main object of this paper is to identify collaboration rate among researchers in IUMS medical and paramedical national seminars.
Methods: In this survey, scientometric methods were used. Statistical population was all articles that attended IUMS medical and paramedical national seminars during 2003-2007. The number of articles was 1751 and researchers were 3697 ones. Data gathered via two checklists (planning by specialists) which validity was approved by experts of Library and Information field and analyzed in a excel database.
Results: Greatest number of titles of articles (522 titles) with 1350 authors and mean number of 2.59 authors per article were observed in 2003. Minimum number of titles of articles (209 titles) with 474 authors and mean number of 2.27 authors per article were observed in 2006. Mean of authors per article was 2.11. "Reza Eshaghi" with 13, "Giti Sadegheyan" and "Hossein Hejazi" with 12 and "Ehsan Habibi" with 11 articles were the most proliferated authors among researchers who attended to mentioned seminar during 2003-07. The mean of collaboration rate among researchers in this study was 0.22.
