  3. What data were available ? • Responses: • 29 Tenured / Tenure-track faculty • 4 Instructional faculty • Did Not Respond: • 5 Tenured / Tenure-track faculty • 2 Instructional faculty • Spatial Scope: • Geographically constrained to UMCP and nearby institutions • Long distance collaborations NOT included • Data Type • Strength of Interaction (% of Effort) • Colleagues outside Biology aggregated by affiliation

  4. Research interactions: How many and how strong? Inside Biology Only

  5. Research interactions: How many and how strong? Inside Biology Only

  6. Research interactions: How many and how strong? All Local Interactions

  7. Some network analyses • Intensity of interactions appear in two ways • Width of links proportional to intensity • Low intensity interactions  greater spatial separation • Compact clusters interact more closely
