Report summary

The 2015-2026 picture for University of Virginia Department of Biomedical Engineering is a 97-PI network with 220 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Medicine as the leading field (32% of slots across 62 PIs; 62 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (14% of slots across 33 PIs; 33 labels), and 3D Printing in Biomedical Research as the leading topic (3% of slots across 9 PIs; 9 labels). That is a nice sign for applicants and collaborators, because the network has both density and separable local groups. The top weighted PIs are Jason P. Sheehan (75 weighted works; Meningioma and schwannoma management, Vascular Malformations Diagnosis and Treatment). The strongest pairings are John A. Hossack and Alexander L. Klibanov (31 shared works, weight 14.3); Craig H. Meyer and Xue Feng (23 shared works, weight 11.8). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 9 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 53.8, around Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, Biomedical Engineering, led by Richard J. Price, Frederick H. Epstein, Michael Salerno.
