Report summary

For University of California, Berkeley Department of Materials Science and Engineering in 2015-2017, the graph shows 29 visible PIs and 34 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Engineering as the leading field (42% of slots across 26 PIs; 26 labels), Biomedical Engineering as the leading subfield (16% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels), and 2D Materials and Applications as the leading topic (3% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is a healthy pattern, with enough links to reveal several interpretable groups rather than one undifferentiated component. The top weighted PIs are Alexis T. Bell (35.3 weighted works; Catalysis for Biomass Conversion, Catalysis and Hydrodesulfurization Studies); Gerbrand Ceder (31.4 weighted works; Advancements in Battery Materials, Advanced Battery Materials and Technologies). The most visible ties are Gerbrand Ceder and Kristin A. Persson (10 shared works, weight 4.6). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 12.6, around Materials Chemistry, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, led by Alexis T. Bell, Xiang Zhang, Nitash P. Balsara.
