Report summary

For University of California, Berkeley Department of Molecular and Cell Biology in 2015-2017, the graph shows 94 visible PIs and 90 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (48% of slots across 77 PIs; 77 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (29% of slots across 64 PIs; 64 labels), and CRISPR and Genetic Engineering as the leading topic (5% of slots across 15 PIs; 15 labels). The network looks reasonably well-rounded, with visible collaboration groups but not so much concentration that one field explains the whole department. The top weighted PIs are Jennifer A. Doudna (31.1 weighted works; CRISPR and Genetic Engineering, RNA and protein synthesis mechanisms). The most visible ties are Robert M. Glaeser and J.H.D. Cate (4 shared works, weight 3.1); David V. Schaffer and John G. Flannery (7 shared works, weight 3). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 19.3, around Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Structural Biology, led by Jennifer A. Doudna, Eva Nogales, Jeremy Thorner; group 2 with 8 PIs, 7 internal connections, weight 10.5, around Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, Genetics, led by David V. Schaffer, Ehud Y. Isacoff, John Kuriyan.
