I am a member of the Rankings Working group at Suranaree University of Technology in Nakhon Ratchasima, THAILAND.

I have recently become aware of an issue in OpenAlex where because we use the term 'Institute' to refer to our different faculties, data from ca. 80 of our academics is affiliated with another institution. As an example, I am affiliated with the Shanghai Institute for Science of Science even though I have never worked there, simply because my publishing address is School of Chemistry, Institute of Science, Suranaree University of Technology.

Can the Team at OpenAlex please help to clean the data so that our authors are correctly affiliated with Suranaree University of Technology.

Kind regards,
David
