Report summary

The 2018-2020 picture for University of Colorado Boulder Department of Psychology and Neuroscience is a 21-PI network with 11 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Neuroscience as the leading field (28% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels), Social Psychology as the leading subfield (14% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), and Neuroendocrine regulation and behavior as the leading topic (7% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). This is a solid, readable collaboration map: group-level fit matters more than a single department-wide label. The leading PI names are Tor D. Wager (10.1 weighted works; Pain Management and Placebo Effect, Face Recognition and Perception); Dietmar Cordes (9.6 weighted works; Functional Brain Connectivity Studies, Neural dynamics and brain function). The clearest collaboration lines are Angela D. Bryan and L. Cinnamon Bidwell (14 shared works, weight 7.3). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 5 PIs, 4 internal connections, weight 1.6, around Cognitive Neuroscience, Genetics, Psychiatry and Mental health, led by Tor D. Wager, John K. Hewitt, Matthew C. Keller; group 2 with 5 PIs, 5 internal connections, weight 11.4, around Biomedical Engineering, Physiology, Endocrine and Autonomic Systems, led by Matthew G. Frank, Linda R. Watkins, Laura K. Fonken.
