Report summary

The 2020-2024 picture for Stanford University Department of Bioengineering is a 84-PI network with 100 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the leading field (27% of slots across 43 PIs; 43 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (17% of slots across 34 PIs; 34 labels), and CRISPR and Genetic Engineering as the leading topic (4% of slots across 9 PIs; 9 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The top weighted PIs are Y. Joseph Woo (72.1 weighted works; Cardiac Valve Diseases and Treatments, Cardiac Structural Anomalies and Repair). The strongest pairings are Wah Chiu and Grigore Pintilie (25 shared works, weight 8.3); Scott L. Delp and Scott D. Uhlrich (14 shared works, weight 7.3). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 10 internal connections, weight 24.9, around Rheumatology, Biomedical Engineering, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, led by Craig S. Levin, Sanjiv S. Gambhir, Scott L. Delp.
