This repository contains collaboration networks I built to evaluate the impact and contributions of labs in 3D genome research. The code however can be easily modified to rank labs in any other scientific field.
The pipeline is quite simple:
- Search and download 3D genome related publication records through web of science
- Parse and extract necessary information (authors, citation times, ... ) from the records
- Count the number of publications and the number of citations for each corresponding author
- Build the co-author network
- Rank labs by their centrality in the network, total citations, and the number of publications.
I plan to update the network every two years and each update will include data from last 5 years.
