Report summary

Northwestern University School of Management in 2020-2026 reads as a 68-PI network with 13 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Economics, Econometrics and Finance as the leading field (25% of slots across 32 PIs; 32 labels), Economics and Econometrics as the leading subfield (17% of slots across 28 PIs; 28 labels), and Monetary Policy and Economic Impact as the leading topic (3% of slots across 6 PIs; 6 labels). That is of concern for a 68-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Stephen D. Persell (19 weighted works; Blood Pressure and Hypertension Studies, Healthcare cost, quality, practices). The strongest pairings are Dashun Wang and Jian Gao (3 shared works, weight 2.5); Dashun Wang and Brian Uzzi (3 shared works, weight 2.1). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 6 PIs, 5 internal connections, weight 7.2, around Statistics, Probability and Uncertainty, Communication, Political Science and International Relations, led by Dashun Wang, Brian Uzzi, Cristián Candia.
