Report summary

The 2015-2017 picture for Harvard University Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology is a 34-PI network with 45 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (48% of slots across 29 PIs; 29 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (33% of slots across 26 PIs; 26 labels), and Pluripotent Stem Cells Research as the leading topic (12% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The top weighted PIs are Jonathan Hoggatt (17.9 weighted works; Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, Phagocytosis and Immune Regulation); Leonard I. Zon (16.2 weighted works; Zebrafish Biomedical Research Applications, Epigenetics and DNA Methylation). The strongest pairings are Jack L. Strominger and Tamara Tilburgs (12 shared works, weight 8.8). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 19, around Molecular Biology, Immunology, Cell Biology, led by Leonard I. Zon, George Q. Daley, Chad A. Cowan; group 2 with 8 PIs, 7 internal connections, weight 7.1, around Molecular Biology, Hematology, Immunology, led by Jonathan Hoggatt, David T. Scadden, Jörg Dietrich.
