International mobility is an important aspect of scientific knowledge production, and in recent decades has become a key focus of both academic research and policy concern. However surprisingly little consensus exists as regards how best to conceptualize scientific mobility, and the evidence base consists of a series of partial snapshots. International mobility can play an important role in the transfer...
This paper explores the potential application of blueprinting, a public service innovation tool, to the design and implementation of innovation policy.
