This has already been merged, but for completeness here are a few minor comments on the code:

Suggest use of any(matches()) versus any(strcmp()) for readability
Suggest converting fieldnames outputs to String and using array indexing instead of cell arrays (which may be best reserved for heterogenous lists)
Suggest that adding a utility script to MatNWB could make sense for the one-shot clone/install/generate in write_to_NWB. Seem like a good idea? Maybe capture as issue on MatNWB
