Good teams/groups at AQR?

Working as a research intern at AQR this summer and the recruiter told me to list any preferences I had for a group. Can anyone shed any light on any of the major three departments or groups within them (Global Stock Selection, Global asset allocation, Global Alternative Premia)?
