Report summary

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Biostatistics in 2018-2020 reads as a 63-PI network with 112 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (23% of slots across 26 PIs; 26 labels), Statistics and Probability as the leading subfield (19% of slots across 25 PIs; 25 labels), and Statistical Methods and Inference as the leading topic (11% of slots across 18 PIs; 18 labels). That is promising: collaboration is not just one large hairball, and the leading breakdown groups cover 17 PIs across distinct clusters. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Wei You (30.3 weighted works; Conducting polymers and applications, Organic Electronics and Photovoltaics). The strongest pairings are Joseph G. Ibrahim and Hongtu Zhu (18 shared works, weight 10.3). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 47.7, around Statistics and Probability, Molecular Biology, Genetics, led by Joseph G. Ibrahim, Donglin Zeng, Jianwen Cai.
