Report summary

For Stanford University Department of Biology in 2015-2017, the graph shows 69 visible PIs and 43 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (39% of slots across 48 PIs; 48 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (20% of slots across 32 PIs; 32 labels), and Microtubule and mitosis dynamics as the leading topic (3% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). The network looks reasonably well-rounded, with visible collaboration groups but not so much concentration that one field explains the whole department. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Marcus W. Feldman (12 weighted works; Complex Network Analysis Techniques, CRISPR and Genetic Engineering). The clearest collaboration lines are Philip C. Hanawalt and Boris P. Belotserkovskii (3 shared works, weight 2.5). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 11.6, around Molecular Biology, Genetics, Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health, led by Marcus W. Feldman, Dmitri A. Petrov, Paul R. Ehrlich.
