Report summary

University of Utah Department of Biomedical Engineering in 2021-2023 reads as a 50-PI network with 34 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Medicine as the leading field (36% of slots across 35 PIs; 35 labels), Biomedical Engineering as the leading subfield (12% of slots across 14 PIs; 14 labels), and Cellular Mechanics and Interactions as the leading topic (3% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). Overall the pattern is balanced: there is enough structure to identify active groups, while the field mix still leaves room for multiple research identities. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Hamidreza Ghandehari (14.3 weighted works; Cell Adhesion Molecules Research, Cellular Mechanics and Interactions); Jeremiah A. Alt (13.9 weighted works; Sinusitis and nasal conditions, Asthma and respiratory diseases). The strongest pairings are Derek J. Dosdall and Ravi Ranjan (16 shared works, weight 8.3). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 8 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 19.2, around Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, Biomedical Engineering, led by Stavros G. Drakos, Derek J. Dosdall, Ravi Ranjan.
