Report summary

The 2021-2023 picture for Duke University Department of Biomedical Engineering is a 76-PI network with 68 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Medicine as the leading field (27% of slots across 41 PIs; 41 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (12% of slots across 24 PIs; 24 labels), and 3D Printing in Biomedical Research as the leading topic (3% of slots across 6 PIs; 6 labels). This is a solid, readable collaboration map: group-level fit matters more than a single department-wide label. The leading PI names are Warren M. Grill (22.9 weighted works; Neuroscience and Neural Engineering, EEG and Brain-Computer Interfaces); Junjie Yao (22.5 weighted works; Photoacoustic and Ultrasonic Imaging, Thermography and Photoacoustic Techniques). The clearest collaboration lines are Joseph A. Izatt and Anthony N. Kuo (30 shared works, weight 13.3); Ehsan Samei and W. Paul Segars (27 shared works, weight 10.8). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 16.6, around Molecular Biology, Biomedical Engineering, Rehabilitation, led by Ashutosh Chilkoti, Shyni Varghese, Tatiana Segura; group 2 with 10 PIs, 11 internal connections, weight 31.2, around Ophthalmology, Biomedical Engineering, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, led by Adam Wax, Louis E. DeFrate, Joseph A. Izatt.
