Report summary

The 2024-2026 picture for New York University Department of Biology is a 22-PI network with 1 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (40% of slots across 19 PIs; 19 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (23% of slots across 13 PIs; 13 labels), and Developmental Biology and Gene Regulation as the leading topic (3% of slots across 2 PIs; 2 labels). That is a thin collaboration pattern, useful for spotting individual pairs but less persuasive as a broad departmental network. The top weighted PIs are Mercedes Pascual (4.8 weighted works; Evolution and Genetic Dynamics, Mosquito-borne diseases and control). The strongest pairings are Joy Bergelson and Mercedes M. Pascual (1 shared works, weight 0.6). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 2 PIs, 1 internal connections, weight 0.6, around Plant Science, Genetics, led by Joy Bergelson, Mercedes M. Pascual.
