Report summary

For University of Minnesota Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science in 2021-2023, the graph shows 40 visible PIs and 70 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Materials Science as the leading field (26% of slots across 24 PIs; 24 labels), Materials Chemistry as the leading subfield (14% of slots across 15 PIs; 15 labels), and Advanced Polymer Synthesis and Characterization as the leading topic (4% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 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 Jian‐Ping Wang (38.1 weighted works; Magnetic properties of thin films, Characterization and Applications of Magnetic Nanoparticles). The clearest collaboration lines are Timothy P. Lodge and Frank S. Bates (23 shared works, weight 12.2). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 12 internal connections, weight 38.8, around Materials Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, led by Timothy P. Lodge, Theresa M. Reineke, Kevin D. Dorfman; group 2 with 9 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 20.1, around Biomedical Engineering, Electronic, Optical and Magnetic Materials, Materials Chemistry, led by Jian‐Ping Wang, Paul J. Dauenhauer, Bharat Jalan.
