Researcher Connection Map

Who has written with whom, worked alongside whom, and studied together — for researchers publishing in MIS Quarterly, Information Systems Research and Management Science, 2000–2026. Click any researcher for their institutions, landmark papers and connections. Sources: OpenAlex (October 2026 snapshot) and the landmark papers of the IS Research Craft atlas; classmate links are a hand-checked core set and are labelled as such.

Colleague links come from OpenAlex affiliation histories — same institution with overlapping years. They map who was where together; they do not prove two people overlapped in the same department day to day. Classmate links (same PhD school, overlapping years) are curated by hand for the core set and marked verified or inferred. Expansion to the full UTD24 and FT50 journal lists is planned. The wide view is capped for browser performance; the complete dataset (2,846 researchers, 40,000+ connections) is in the page data file.
