The jury, including Janice Madden (University of Pennsylvania), Carlos Azzoni (University of S\u00e3o Paulo) and Erik Verhoef (VU Amsterdam), chose Dr Berg\u00e9\u2019s paper\u2019s for the originality of the topic and the important results achieved.<\/p><p>\u201cNetwork proximity in the geography of research collaboration\u201d introduces a new measure of inter-regional network proximity. Using data on European scientific co-publications in the field of chemistry, the paper addresses the questions of how network proximity influences the structure of inter-regional collaborations and how it interacts with geography. The paper explores the determinants of scientific collaborations across space and addresses the questions of how network proximity (e.g. having common collaborators) influences the structure of inter-regional collaborations and how it interacts with geography.<\/p><p>\u201cThe paper introduces a new theoretically grounded measure on inter-regional network proximity and uses data on European scientific co-publications to demonstrate that the proximity in the network is a substitute to geographical proximity,\u201d Dr Berg\u00e9 explained. \u201cIn other words, geographically distant actors benefit more from network proximity than actors at a short distance. Put into perspective, these findings vindicate public policies funding international collaborations. Indeed, such policies help reduce the network distance between geographically distant actors (even the ones not receiving funds), eventually facilitating new international collaborations beyond the initial funding.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cNetwork proximity in the geography of research collaboration\u201d was published in <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/pirs.12218\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Papers in Regional Science, Volume 96, Issue 4<\/a>.<\/p><p>The award was presented at the 58<sup>th<\/sup> ERSA Congress, hosted in Cork, Ireland, at the end of August.<\/p><p>Laurent Berg\u00e9 joined CREA in August 2016, following a post-doc position at the University Paris Descartes.
