Report summary

The 2018-2020 picture for University of Florida Department of Chemistry is a 51-PI network with 34 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Chemistry as the leading field (27% of slots across 29 PIs; 29 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (16% of slots across 19 PIs; 19 labels), and Mass Spectrometry Techniques and Applications as the leading topic (5% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels). This is a solid, readable collaboration map: group-level fit matters more than a single department-wide label. The top weighted PIs are Weihong Tan (56.8 weighted works; Advanced biosensing and bioanalysis techniques, RNA Interference and Gene Delivery). The strongest pairings are Thanh Lam Nguyen and John F. Stanton (12 shared works, weight 7.5). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 11 internal connections, weight 18, around Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, Materials Chemistry, led by Weihong Tan, Brent S. Sumerlin, Coray M. Colina; group 2 with 10 PIs, 11 internal connections, weight 20.2, around Molecular Biology, Spectroscopy, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, led by Timothy J. Garrett, Richard A. Yost, Adrián E. Roitberg.
