What this shows Institute's Innovation Score is 43.4/100 (top 28% 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 Institute?
Each dot is one of Institute’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). Institute’s own 7.1 claims/patent is at or below the 12.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Institute's grants concentrate
Institute OF Zoology, Chinese Academy OF Sciences is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 63.6% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Institute sits between Institut Mines TELECOM/TELECOM Bretagne and Interscience.
Institute's three-year grant acceleration
Institute OF Zoology, Chinese Academy OF Sciences shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
