Report summary

The 2024-2026 picture for University of Pennsylvania Department of Statistics and Data Science is a 13-PI network with 3 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Mathematics as the leading field (25% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), Statistics and Probability as the leading subfield (23% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), and Advanced Causal Inference Techniques as the leading topic (8% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is a thin collaboration pattern, useful for spotting individual pairs but less persuasive as a broad departmental network. The top weighted PIs are Bingxin Zhao (7.3 weighted works; Genetic Associations and Epidemiology, Functional Brain Connectivity Studies). The strongest pairings are Dylan S. Small and Paul R. Rosenbaum (2 shared works, weight 1.1). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 4 PIs, 3 internal connections, weight 1.4, around Statistics and Probability, Management Science and Operations Research, Economics and Econometrics, led by Dylan S. Small, Paul R. Rosenbaum, Eric Tchetgen Tchetgen.
