Institut national de la recherche scientifique
We teach the next generation of researchers to develop scientific, social, and technological innovations.
We find solutions through interdisciplinary research and industry or public and community partnerships.
We play an active role in Québec's economic, social, and cultural development.
INRS research themes promote synergy and interdisciplinarity among research teams. Joining forces allows us to innovate to respond boldly and creatively to the challenges raised by emerging scientific issues, for the benefit of society.
