Abstract

In the trend of globalization of science and technology (S&T), there has been a sweeping flow of high-level scientific and technological talent (HSTT). Training and recruiting HSTT is a strategic choice of all countries and regions of the world to gain international competitive advantages. In order to make full play to the role of HSTT in the development of economy and society, China has implemented an open policy and mechanism to press ahead transnational construction of HSTT in an all-round way.

Firstly, this paper summarize the characteristics of CHCS's transnational mobility from the views of form, stage, direction, scale, frequency and time on curriculum vitae analysis. Secondly, this paper built econometric models to measure the influence of CHCR's transnational mobility on international co-publication and scientific research productivity.
