Portfolio overview

MOREHOUSE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE has been granted 70 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing MOREHOUSE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE at rank #4,964 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, MOREHOUSE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 41.9/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 41 grants, compared with 29 in the 2015–2019 window — a +41% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. MOREHOUSE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE's 12.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark MOREHOUSE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
