Report summary

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Genetics in 2024-2026 reads as a 36-PI network with 24 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (45% of slots across 32 PIs; 32 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (24% of slots across 22 PIs; 22 labels), and Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics as the leading topic (4% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). Overall the pattern is balanced: there is enough structure to identify active groups, while the field mix still leaves room for multiple research identities. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Laura M. Raffield (13.1 weighted works; Alzheimer's disease research and treatments, Genetic Associations and Epidemiology). The strongest pairings are Jonathan S. Berg and Laura V. Milko (7 shared works, weight 2). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 7 PIs, 6 internal connections, weight 4.5, around Molecular Biology, Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine, Physiology, led by Laura M. Raffield, Lisa A. Carey, Jeremy E. Purvis; group 2 with 6 PIs, 5 internal connections, weight 4, around Molecular Biology, Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health, Infectious Diseases, led by Mark T. Heise, Terrence S. Furey, Folami Ideraabdullah.
