What this shows Universidad's Innovation Score is 28.8/100 (28th percentile 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 Universidad?

Each dot is one of Universidad’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). Universidad’s own 10.6 claims/patent is at or below the 13.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Universidad's grants concentrate

Universidad DE Murcia is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Universidad sits between United Wire, Ltd and Universitaet ZU Koeln.

Universidad's three-year grant acceleration

Universidad DE Murcia shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
