On the occasion of the celebration of the 40 years of the Association of Brazilian Researchers and Students in France (APEB-FR) in 2024, a statistical analysis about the profile of its members over a 10 -year period was conducted, and the results are presented and discussed in this work. Additionally, these characteristics are compared with those extracted from two specific data collections on the Brazilian scientific diaspora in France: one conducted in 1993 and obtained from this association's historical archives, and another at the end of 2024, on the occasion of the Annual Meeting of the Brazilian Scientific Diaspora in France, organized by the Brazilian Embassy in France. The results show, overall and across time, a predominance of female researchers between the ages of 35 and 50 who come to France to pursue their doctorates in the humanities, linguistics, literature, and social arts. The results show an interesting temporal variation, where the demographic profile appears to be changing in recent years. There is a trend toward gender balance and an increase in the percentages of both young students and researchers and professionals coming to France to work in the field of education, science, technology and innovation (postdoctoral fellows, researchers, and professors). Regarding the field of knowledge, the data fr'om the 1990s d iffer from the most recent, where at that time there was a more significant participation from the exact and earth sciences and engineering fields, while more recently there has been an increase in the interdisciplinary nature of the work of these Brazilians.
