Board diversity

Per-editor diversity indicators. Each editor is counted once (composite identity key). The Shannon column uses Pielou's normalisation J = H / ln(k), bounded in [0, 1]. See the methodology for full definitions, use cases, and references (Shannon 1948; Pielou 1966; Jost 2006).

0.593
Pielou's J over OpenAlex scientific fields. High values mean this entity's editors span many disciplines (a broad multidisciplinary footprint); low values mean they cluster in one field. Especially informative for institution pages, where the country and org_type Shannons are trivially zero.
26 yr
Median years since first OpenAlex-indexed publication, per unique editor. IQR 13.8–36.5 yr (spread 22.8 yr), mean 28.9 yr, n = 52. A low median with a small IQR indicates a board clustered in one career stage; a large IQR signals generational mix.
