Report summary

The 2024-2026 picture for University of Washington Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is a 20-PI network with 5 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Engineering as the leading field (20% of slots across 9 PIs; 9 labels), Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics as the leading subfield (12% of slots across 6 PIs; 6 labels), and Photonic and Optical Devices as the leading topic (5% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is a thin collaboration pattern, useful for spotting individual pairs but less persuasive as a broad departmental network. The leading PI names are Arka Majumdar (36 weighted works; Photonic and Optical Devices, Neural Networks and Reservoir Computing); Brandi M. Cossairt (23.6 weighted works; Quantum Dots Synthesis And Properties, Nanocluster Synthesis and Applications). The clearest collaboration lines are Arka Majumdar and Brandi M. Cossairt (5 shared works, weight 2.3). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 5 PIs, 4 internal connections, weight 5.4, around Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, led by Arka Majumdar, Brandi M. Cossairt, Sara Mouradian.
