Report summary

University of Pennsylvania Department of Psychology in 2018-2020 reads as a 46-PI network with 8 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Neuroscience as the leading field (29% of slots across 27 PIs; 27 labels), Cognitive Neuroscience as the leading subfield (20% of slots across 23 PIs; 23 labels), and Functional Brain Connectivity Studies as the leading topic (5% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels). That is of concern for a 46-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Johannes Burge (12.4 weighted works; Visual perception and processing mechanisms, Color Science and Applications); Emily B. Falk (12.2 weighted works; Behavioral Health and Interventions, Media Influence and Health). The strongest pairings are Michael J. Kahana and Youssef Ezzyat (3 shared works, weight 1.6); Yoed N. Kenett and John D. Medaglia (2 shared works, weight 1.6). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 2 PIs, 1 internal connections, weight 0.6, around Cognitive Neuroscience, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, Molecular Biology, led by Johannes Burge, David H. Brainard.
