Report summary

The 2015-2017 picture for University of Illinois Chicago Department of Biomedical Engineering is a 3-PI network with 0 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Medicine as the leading field (50% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels), Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging as the leading subfield (29% of slots across 2 PIs; 2 labels), and 3D Printing in Biomedical Research as the leading topic (11% of slots across 1 PIs; 1 labels). That is a weak collaboration signal, so the page is better read as a faculty inventory than as evidence of a connected department. The leading PI names are Michael Cho (1.6 weighted works; Intraocular Surgery and Lenses, Photochromic and Fluorescence Chemistry). No internal PI-to-PI collaboration edge is visible in this period. No multi-PI collaboration group is visible in this period, a concerning sign if the department expects a connected internal network.
