    Introduction: the present paper sets out to characterize the publication dynamicsof collaborative research partnershipsbetween Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean (EULAC) region in the last forty years. Objective: we adopt two approacheswhen analyzing data based on the followingassumptions: 1) collaboration is characterizedby a central relationship established betweenresearchers from one LAC and one EU institution, 2) bi-regional collaborationis characterized by a series of scientificpublications forged with different scientistsand institutions. Our hypothesis is to find out if the bi-regional scientific relations betweenthe EULAC countries through international collaboration have been strengthened in recent years thanks to the institutional and investigative efforts to internationalize their research.Materials and methods: we offer a literature review that involves co-publicationsfrom EULAC institutions published from 1991 to 2016 to study bi-regional researchcollaboration in different areas. We evaluate the temporal evolution of EULAC collaboration,the leadership of the publications, and the type of research domain covered. We have found 43 research papers that comply with our criteria. We have divided these into three main horizontal categories: EULAC collaboration,Ibero-American collaboration, and SpecificEULAC countries collaboration. Each categoryhas been divided into vertical categories: All disciplines, and Specific disciplines.Results: from this review, it is possible to have a map of the EULAC bi-regional co-publicationsdivided into key areas of knowledge and the countries with more straight or weak scientific collaboration. Conclusions: we have observed how many studies are focusedonly on a particular area like Biotechnologyor Nanotechnology, with a lack of scientificliterature in Social Science and Humanities.Keywords: Bibliometric analysis,bi-regional EU-LAC collaboration, co-publications.
