What this shows FU's Innovation Score is 41.3/100 (top 33% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for FU?

Each dot is one of FU’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). FU’s own 10.3 claims/patent is at or below the 13.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where FU's grants concentrate

FU JEN Catholic University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 28.6% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, FU sits between Fraunhofer-geselschaft and Fujian Akeylink Biotechnology Co., Ltd..

FU's three-year grant acceleration

FU JEN Catholic University shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
