Get a single funder

It's easy to get a funder from from the API with: /funders/<entity_id>. Here's an example:

That will return a Funder object, describing everything OpenAlex knows about the funder with that ID:

{
  "id": "https://openalex.org/F4320332161",
  "display_name": "National Institutes of Health",
  "alternate_titles": [
  "US National Institutes of Health",
  "Institutos Nacionales de la Salud",
  "NIH"
  ],
  // other fields removed for brevity
}

You can make up to 50 of these queries at once by requesting a list of entities and filtering on IDs using OR syntax.
