Report summary

University of California, Irvine Department of Pediatrics in 2015-2017 reads as a 15-PI network with 7 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Medicine as the leading field (48% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels), Epidemiology as the leading subfield (14% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels), and Lysosomal Storage Disorders Research as the leading topic (4% of slots across 2 PIs; 2 labels). That is of concern for a 15-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Claudia Buß (13.4 weighted works; Child Abuse and Trauma, Stress Responses and Cortisol). The strongest pairings are Pathik D. Wadhwa and Claudia Buß (39 shared works, weight 16.5). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 4 PIs, 3 internal connections, weight 17.9, around Immunology, Clinical Psychology, Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health, led by Claudia Buß, Pathik D. Wadhwa, Dan M. Cooper.
