This research is set to study scientific publications published by faculty members of Allameh Tabatab’i University in two international citation indexes including the Science Citation Index and Scopus. Duration of the study was 1987 till the end of 2015. Scientometrics methods were used to do the study. Searches in the mentioned databases were the main tool of data gathering. The results show that the growth rate was 29.49 and 32.51, and density indicator is 0.008 and 0.005 in the Science Citation Index and Scopus respectively. This indicates a low density and low collaboration among authors. Faculty of Management and Accounting was the most productive one. The United States of America and Switzerland were top countries in international scientific collaborations. In addition, scientific collaboration at national level was mostly done by authors from the Islamic Azad University, Tehran University and Amir Kabir University of Technology. There was an overlap of 21 percent among indexed publications by the two databases.

This study aimed to determine the level of Iranian cooperation and scientific cooperation network structure analysis Basic Medical Sciences, Science Citation base from 1996 to 2013 was conducted.
The study, a bibliometric methods and indicators with the help of network analysis and study population consisted of 1040 articles published in the fields of stem cells, molecular medicine and bioinformatics subfields of Basic Medical Sciences and the priorities of Science in document comprehensive scientific map is.
Results showed that inter-agency cooperation in the area of ​​94/23 percent, 02/52 percent external cooperation and international cooperation 23.8 percent. The findings in the analysis of scientific collaboration networks, for network density number 018/0, 831/0 equivalent network clustering coefficient, average distance of 334/3 cooperation networks and network diameter and index components 9 partner network of basic medical sciences 24 component is calculated. Results for centrality indices (chopped), at the center of the network of 346/2 per cent, equivalent to 69/31% and the core network bainite closeness centrality index vector index networking equivalent of 522/3 and 18/85%, respectively.
The result of the cooperation network in the field of medical science is not enough consistency and adequate communication and scientific collaboration between researchers there.

To identify research methodology and author's typology in the field of scientific collaboration.The study was conducted by using meta-analysis approach and review of previous published research. Considering 40 published papers, show that the main research methodology (80%) was survey. In terms of typology, 60% of articles were published under the supervision of a teacher or expert accompanying by a student. The number of articles was increased in the duration of the study from beginning till the end.
