Hi,

I've noticed that the author affiliations are sometimes broken up in the Biblioshiny reports, often in ways that make it difficult to trace it back to the correct author/article. Sometimes you end up with just "AND BLOOD INSTITUTE" or "Nurse Scientist" (but not the part that says which hospital they work at). Is there a way to deal with this or is this something that can be prevented? Maybe escaping punctuation in the affiliation?

Also, a tool to roll-up variations in institution names like "UPenn" and "University of Pennsylvania" are the same institution would be awesome.

With the OpenAlex integration, maybe that api could be used to disambiguate or even locate affiliation institutions? Or ROR? Accuracy without having to do it by hand would be a big help.
