Report summary

The 2015-2026 picture for University of California, Davis Department of Chemistry is a 89-PI network with 194 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Chemistry as the leading field (19% of slots across 39 PIs; 39 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (15% of slots across 32 PIs; 32 labels), and Glycosylation and Glycoproteins Research as the leading topic (3% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The top weighted PIs are Dean J. Tantillo (102.5 weighted works; Plant biochemistry and biosynthesis, Advanced Chemical Physics Studies); Alexandra Navrotsky (97.9 weighted works; Nuclear materials and radiation effects, Nuclear Materials and Properties). The strongest pairings are Alan L. Balch and Marilyn M. Olmstead (61 shared works, weight 27.3). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 71, around Molecular Biology, Organic Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, led by Philip P. Power, Xi Chen, Alan L. Balch; group 2 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 36.8, around Molecular Biology, Organic Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, led by Dean J. Tantillo, Oliver Fiehn, David E. Olson.
