Quality Assurance of Research


© INRA
INRA has decided to reinforce the professionalism of its scientists and the level of excellence of its research by publishing a policy on quality.

The Animal Genetics Division has engaged in a quality policy along with the institute, by defining the following objectives :

For all research and experimental units, the minimum objective is to attain and maintain the first level quality criteria of INRA, therefore guaranteeing :

  • the reliability of the results that can be measured,
  • the traceability of the research studies.

In addition, certification is an objective of those units that furnish services outside of the institute. Thus, the Division (the CTIG and SGQA) is ISO 9001-2000 certified for its genetic evaluation of cattle since 2006. The Biological Resource Centre GADIE is also ISO 9001-2000 certified for all of its resource conservation activities and production of genomic tools since 2005. 
 
In the experimental units, quality assurance has been encouraged by the Division, in parallel for the following :

1) the development of renovated databases and data collection tools and;
2) the development of actions and audits for the control of professional risks.
