The research combines theoretical and empirical studies, using a mixed-method approach that integrates...
- This $143,126 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The grant supports collaborative research at Macalester College to study how the growing scale and organization of scientific knowledge impacts the pace of scientific discovery. The project will apply topological data analysis techniques to bibliometric and grant payment data to examine concept...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $307,284 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to Regents of the University of Michigan Office of Research and Sponsored Projects (doing business as University of Michigan) to conduct a collaborative research study titled "HNDS-R: Stepping Out of Flatland: Complex Networks, Topological Data Analysis, and the Progress of Science." The 3-year project, beginning September 1, 2023, will use...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $100,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to New York University (NYU) for the project "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: STATISTICAL MODELING AND INFERENCE ON DIRECTED NETWORK DATA FOR UNDERSTANDING FACULTY HIRING DYNAMICS." The research will advance the progress of science by creating new statistical tools for analyzing complex networks, which are fundamental to the nation's prosperity and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $300,000.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) supports research conducted by the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to develop new tools and techniques for detecting potential misappropriation or foreign interference with U.S. federally funded research. Specifically, the project constructs a knowledge graph connecting data on grants, publications, patents, and researcher affiliations to...
- This $400,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) supports research to understand how socioeconomic heterogeneity within the U.S. scientific workforce impacts scientific discovery and innovation. The project aims to (i) create a unique individual-level dataset linking researcher socioeconomic backgrounds to scholarly topics, (ii) make an anonymized version of this dataset publicly available, (iii)...
- This $134,432 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports collaborative research to build empirically informed models of scientific search and progress. The research aims to understand the factors that drive or hinder innovation, including the proliferation of scientific knowledge, funding incentives, pressure to publish, and challenges of remote collaboration. The project uses a mixed-method approach,...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will provide $150,000 to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia to analyze how research centers influence scientific collaboration across U.S. universities. The project aims to map center affiliations, classify centers by their founding collaboration structures, and use natural experiments to estimate the causal effects of center affiliation on individual collaboration practices and interdisciplinary research production. This work will build a comprehensive, longitudinal dataset of research centers and institutes at over 300 U.S. universities linked to affiliated faculty, funding sources, and collaborative research outputs. The results will guide universities, funders, and decision-makers in designing more effective research environments to support interdisciplinary science, translational research, and the next generation of cutting-edge research centers. The award period runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027.
