## TL;DR

This paper introduces a bibliometric analysis strategy using social network analysis methods to explore the calmodulin research field from Web of Science articles, aiding literature review and key opinion leader identification.

## Contribution

It demonstrates how social network analysis techniques can structure large bibliographic datasets and identify influential researchers in a specific scientific domain.

## Key findings

- Effective structuring of calmodulin literature
- Identification of key opinion leaders
- Accessible software for bibliometric analysis

## Abstract

In this chapter, we present a strategy and the technics to approach a scientific field from a set of articles gathered from the bibliographic database, Web of Science. The strategy is based on methods developed to analyze social networks. We illustrate the use of such strategy in studying the calmodulin field. Such method allows to structure a huge number of articles when writing a review, to detect the key opinion leaders in a given field and to locate his own research topic in the landscape of the themes deciphered by our own community. We show that the free software VosViewer may be used without knowledge in computing science and with a short learning period. iii.
