Company patents
UNIVERSITE DE LORRAINE
UNIVERSITE DE LORRAINE's patent strategy reveals a surprising breadth beyond traditional academic research, with a significant focus on industrial applications like Aircraft Equipment (19.6% of portfolio) and Electric Motors & Generators (17.6%). While Peptides & Proteins saw a remarkable 300.0% growth in 2025, its complete decline so far in 2026, alongside other categories like Catalysts & Reactors and Therapeutic Activity (Pharma) also experiencing 100.0% declines, suggests a potential shift in priorities or a highly cyclical research output in certain areas.
