Report summary

The 2015-2026 picture for Johns Hopkins University Department of Neuroscience is a 108-PI network with 288 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Neuroscience as the leading field (39% of slots across 78 PIs; 78 labels), Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience as the leading subfield (14% of slots across 39 PIs; 39 labels), and Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research as the leading topic (6% of slots across 21 PIs; 21 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 Peter A. Calabresi (56.9 weighted works; Multiple Sclerosis Research Studies, Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration Mechanisms); Barbara S. Slusher (56.7 weighted works; Extracellular vesicles in disease, Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration Mechanisms). The strongest pairings are Barbara S. Slusher and Rana Rais (131 shared works, weight 41.5). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 20.6, around Molecular Biology, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Developmental Neuroscience, led by Peter A. Calabresi, Seth Blackshaw, Donald J. Zack; group 2 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 23, around Molecular Biology, Neurology, Genetics, led by Xinzhong Dong, Solomon H. Snyder, Jeffrey D. Rothstein.
