Does more volume mean deeper claims for Lankenau?

Each dot is one of Lankenau’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). Lankenau’s own 12.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Lankenau's grants concentrate

Lankenau Institute for Medical Research is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 82.6% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Lankenau sits between Lonza Walkersville, Inc. and LivaNova Deutschland GmbH.

Lankenau's three-year grant acceleration

Lankenau Institute for Medical Research shows 10 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.
