Report summary

University of California, San Francisco Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics in 2024-2026 reads as a 31-PI network with 9 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (49% of slots across 30 PIs; 30 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (31% of slots across 24 PIs; 24 labels), and Genomics and Chromatin Dynamics as the leading topic (4% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). That is of concern for a 31-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Hani Goodarzi (8.7 weighted works; Cancer Genomics and Diagnostics, RNA and protein synthesis mechanisms); Robert R. Flavell (7.9 weighted works; Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry and Applications, Prostate Cancer Treatment and Research). The strongest pairings are Geeta J. Narlikar and Yifan Cheng (3 shared works, weight 1.6). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 9 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 7.1, around Molecular Biology, Cancer Research, Immunology, led by Hani Goodarzi, Geeta J. Narlikar, Martin Kampmann.
