Report summary

University of Colorado Boulder Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering in 2024-2026 reads as a 33-PI network with 36 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Engineering as the leading field (26% of slots across 20 PIs; 20 labels), Biomedical Engineering as the leading subfield (13% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels), and Micro and Nano Robotics as the leading topic (3% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is promising: collaboration is not just one large hairball, and the leading breakdown groups cover 17 PIs across distinct clusters. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Timothy J. White (22.3 weighted works; Advanced Materials and Mechanics, Polymer composites and self-healing); Christopher N. Bowman (20 weighted works; Photopolymerization techniques and applications, Advanced Polymer Synthesis and Characterization). The strongest pairings are Timothy J. White and Kristi S. Anseth (7 shared works, weight 3.9). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 16.3, around Biomedical Engineering, Polymers and Plastics, Mechanical Engineering, led by Timothy J. White, Christopher N. Bowman, Kristi S. Anseth.
