Report summary

University of California, Berkeley Department of Chemistry in 2015-2017 reads as a 80-PI network with 82 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Chemistry as the leading field (20% of slots across 31 PIs; 31 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (13% of slots across 24 PIs; 24 labels), and Catalytic C–H Functionalization Methods as the leading topic (3% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels). That is promising: collaboration is not just one large hairball, and the leading breakdown groups cover 22 PIs across distinct clusters. The leading PI names are John F. Hartwig (39.7 weighted works; Catalytic C–H Functionalization Methods, Asymmetric Hydrogenation and Catalysis); Liqiang Mai (39.2 weighted works; Advancements in Battery Materials, Supercapacitor Materials and Fabrication). The most visible ties are Stephen R. Leone and Daniel M. Neumark (28 shared works, weight 14.5). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 40, around Organic Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, led by Alexis T. Bell, F. Dean Toste, John Arnold; group 2 with 9 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 8.9, around Molecular Biology, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, Cell Biology, led by Jennifer A. Doudna, Evan R. Williams, Daniel K. Nomura.
