Report summary

The 2021-2023 picture for Yale University Department of Cell Biology is a 45-PI network with 63 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (52% of slots across 42 PIs; 42 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (29% of slots across 33 PIs; 33 labels), and Cellular transport and secretion as the leading topic (13% of slots across 17 PIs; 17 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The leading PI names are Pietro De Camilli (9.1 weighted works; Cellular transport and secretion, Erythrocyte Function and Pathophysiology); Michael Simons (8.5 weighted works; Angiogenesis and VEGF in Cancer, Cell Adhesion Molecules Research). The clearest collaboration lines are Qian Xiao and Xiaolei Su (5 shared works, weight 4.1). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 9 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 13.4, around Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Epidemiology, led by Pietro De Camilli, Karin M. Reinisch, Thomas J. Melia.
