Report summary

University of Wisconsin–madison Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering in 2018-2020 reads as a 22-PI network with 41 internal PI collaborations. The research center of gravity is Engineering as the leading field (21% of slots across 11 PIs; 11 labels), Molecular Biology as the leading subfield (13% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), and Biofuel production and bioconversion as the leading topic (5% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is promising: collaboration is not just one large hairball, and the leading breakdown groups cover 15 PIs across distinct clusters. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Christos T. Maravelias (33.5 weighted works; Process Optimization and Integration, Advanced Control Systems Optimization); Manos Mavrikakis (33.5 weighted works; Catalytic Processes in Materials Science, Electrocatalysts for Energy Conversion). The strongest pairings are George W. Huber and James A. Dumesic (39 shared works, weight 17.4). The strongest breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 12 internal connections, weight 48.4, around Biomedical Engineering, Materials Chemistry, Catalysis, led by Christos T. Maravelias, Manos Mavrikakis, George W. Huber.
