"En direct des labos"


 

The aim of this two-monthly newsletter is two-fold:

  • to inform you of the diversity of the results obtained by our research teams and which may be of interest to you,
  • to encourage you to collaborate with INRA by demonstrating the strength of our partnerships and by offering opportunities for cooperation.

It is edited by the INRA Directorate for Partnership, Transfer and Innovation (DPE) with the support of the Directorate for Valorisation (DV).
