Some UCSF departments consistently reach out out to collaborate with other members of the UCSF community. Here are the top 20 UCSF departments whose researchers have the highest proportion of publications co-authored with members of other UCSF departments from among departments whose researchers had a total of 100+ publications published between January 2012 and November 2013.
Details: Data is drawn from UCSF Profiles, and is based on a list of all publications listed on PubMed published between Jan 2012–Nov 2013 whose authors include groups of researchers with primary affiliations to more than one UCSF department. We counted only publications from researchers with a listed department, and departments with 100+ publications by current associated researchers between Jan 2012–Nov 2013. No attempt was made to account for the widely varying sizes and scopes of different departments, the fact that researchers may have multiple departmental affiliations, or the fact that some publications may have been authored before the researchers were affiliated with their current primary departments at UCSF. These are the top 20 departments, out of a total of 42 that match our criteria.
