Report summary

For Pennsylvania State University Department of Chemical Engineering in 2021-2023, the graph shows 39 visible PIs and 44 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Materials Science as the leading field (23% of slots across 19 PIs; 19 labels), Materials Chemistry as the leading subfield (18% of slots across 18 PIs; 18 labels), and Catalytic Processes in Materials Science as the leading topic (3% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). That is a healthy pattern, with enough links to reveal several interpretable groups rather than one undifferentiated component. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Andrew L. Zydney (34.4 weighted works; Protein purification and stability, Microfluidic and Bio-sensing Technologies); Adri C. T. van Duin (34 weighted works; Graphene research and applications, 2D Materials and Applications). The clearest collaboration lines are Esther W. Gomez and Enrique D. Gomez (10 shared works, weight 3.7). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 18.1, around Materials Chemistry, Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment, Biomedical Engineering, led by Andrew L. Zydney, Seong H. Kim, Raymond E. Schaak.
