Report summary

University of Saskatchewan Department of Chemistry in 2020-2026 reads as a 23-PI network with 11 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Materials Science as the leading field (25% of slots across 12 PIs; 12 labels), Materials Chemistry as the leading subfield (15% of slots across 8 PIs; 8 labels), and X-ray Spectroscopy and Fluorescence Analysis as the leading topic (4% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is of concern for a 23-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Lee D. Wilson (84.7 weighted works; Adsorption and biosorption for pollutant removal, Phosphorus and nutrient management). The strongest pairings are Ingrid J. Pickering and Graham N. George (34 shared works, weight 14.7). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 6 PIs, 6 internal connections, weight 20.2, around Materials Chemistry, Radiation, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, led by Graham N. George, Timothy L. Kelly, Eric W. Price.
