==Abstract==
The present Editorial, while dealing with brain drain, takes also into account the drivers of this dramatic phenomenon, affecting Italy since over 50 years.
Within such context, a leading factor appears to be represented by the salaries of Italian scientists working in the Academia as well as in other research Institutions, which are consistently lower than those gained by their colleagues working in scientifically advanced, European and non-European Countries.
Notwithstanding the above, the Italian Researchers' Community ranks as the 8th worldwide in terms of scientific output's quality and amount.
