Project Team Analysis (Research Insight)

Team Analysis

Users can view the aggregate activity of the new team by clicking the View Analysis prompt in the lower right-hand corner of the Project space: .

Select researchers to add to a team by dragging and dropping their row from the results table into the Project box below. Once you have added two or more team members to the project, a team analysis may be conducted.

The Team Analysis screen provides users with four separate displays to view individual and aggregate contributions to the team; career progression, intra-team collaborations and expertise intersection.

Discipline Career Progression

The Team Analysis Discipline Career Progression chart demonstrates each team member’s average trend in research activity relative to their own discipline. The progression is displayed per the selected variable chosen from the dropdown menu on the right. Dots represent team members and are color coded by discipline. The Y-axis represents the score for the variable and the X-axis represents years since terminal degree. Hovering on a dot provides the team member’s name, years since terminal degree, comparative discipline, and information relating to the selected variable. Note that book chapters, clinical trials, and patents do not appear in this section as they have not yet been incorporated into comparative metrics.

Aggregate Research Activity

This section displays the team’s aggregated research activity for articles, awards, books, book chapters, clinical trials, citations, grants, grant dollars, and patents. Hovering over a bar displays the individual contributions of each team member. Bars are color-coded by team member discipline (as indicated in the team roster in the top-left of the analysis screen).

Intra-Team Collaboration

This section displays previous collaborations among members of the team. The size of a team member’s dot indicates that person’s number of distinct collaborators, while the color of the dot indicates the institution affiliation (“My Institution”, “Selected Schools”, or “National”).

Expertise Intersection

The Expertise Intersection displays the shared occurrence of key research terms in the publications of the team members. Darker cells indicate a higher number of occurrences of the word in the row for the team member in the column. Hovering over a cell will show the total number of occurrences for the specific faculty member, the highest number of occurrences among the team, and the total occurrences for the entire team.

Funding Opportunities

Team Analysis Funding presents a tabbed view of “Suggested” and “Project Funding.”

Project Funding contains funding opportunities that have been added to the Project by the user.

Suggested Funding contains funding opportunities targeted at the overall research of the Project Scholars. Each opportunity can be added to the Project Funding. Items in Project Funding will not appear in the Suggested list.
