Yousaf Jawad*

Interdisciplinary research is pivotal in addressing complex challenges. A bibliometric analysis reveals key trends and challenges in this field. Utilizing data integration, citation patterns, and network analysis, it uncovers the growth and impact of interdisciplinary research. Challenges lie in data integration and accurate representation of interdisciplinary work in databases. Findings indicate a consistent increase in interdisciplinary research, with broad societal impact and unique citation patterns. Interdisciplinary research networks have been mapped, facilitating collaboration. As the boundaries between disciplines blur, bibliometric analysis remains essential in understanding this evolving research landscape.
