Report summary

For University of Virginia Department of Chemical Engineering in 2024-2026, the graph shows 22 visible PIs and 10 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Materials Science as the leading field (20% of slots across 10 PIs; 10 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (13% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), and Catalytic Processes in Materials Science as the leading topic (6% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). That looks relatively sparse, so claims about department-wide cohesion should be made carefully. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Gary M. Koenig (8.2 weighted works; Advancements in Battery Materials, Advanced Battery Materials and Technologies); Geoffrey M. Geise (7 weighted works; Fuel Cells and Related Materials, Membrane-based Ion Separation Techniques). The clearest collaboration lines are Gary M. Koenig and Geoffrey M. Geise (6 shared works, weight 3.3). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 7 PIs, 8 internal connections, weight 3.7, around Materials Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Catalysis, led by Gaurav Giri, Rachel A. Letteri, William S. Epling.
