Cohen (7 shared works, weight 3); Lauren A. Feldman and Joel Cooper (3 shared works, weight 2.5). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 12 internal connections, weight 11.8, around Cognitive Neuroscience, Experimental and Cognitive Psychology, Computational Theory and Mathematics, led by Lauren L. Emberson, Yael Niv, Thomas L. Griffiths.
