OLMEDO, Carmen et al. Managing a health research institute: towards research excellence through continuous improvement. Gac Sanit [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.6, pp.458-460. ISSN 0213-9111. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gaceta.2015.06.003.
Health research institutes are a strategic commitment considered the ideal environment to develop excellence in translational research. Achieving quality research requires not only a powerful scientific and research structure but also the quality and integrity of management systems that support it. The essential instruments in our institution were solid strategic planning integrated into and consistent with the system of quality management, systematic evaluation through periodic indicators, measurement of key user satisfaction and internal audits, and implementation of an innovative information management tool. The implemented management tools have provided a strategic thrust to our institute while ensuring a level of quality and efficiency in the development and management of research that allows progress towards excellence in biomedical research.
