European Federation For Immunogenetics
The European Federation for Immunogenetics (EFI) is the European association of people with interests in the field of immunogenetics. History of the EFI During the early 1980s, members of the Committee created a more formal organisation and the organisation was made official in the mid-1980s. It was initiated to give scientists an opportunity to collaborate with one another, and to ensure that their findings were accurate and of high quality. EFI sets a series of standards for laboratories to adhere to and works to create relationships with other organisations worldwide that carry out similar work. Accreditation There are now over 200 laboratories accredited by the EFI. These laboratories are found not only in Europe, but also in Israel, South Africa and Mexico and have met the criteria that have been set out by EFI. The laboratories undergo regular inspections to ensure that they are continuing to follow the standards and that they are producing the high-quality work expected. C ...

Formal Organization
A formal organization is an organization with a fixed set of rules of intra-organization procedures and structures. As such, it is usually set out in writing, with a language of rules that ostensibly leave little discretion for interpretation. Sociologist Max Weber devised a model of formal organization known as the bureaucratic model that's based on the rationalization of activities through standards and procedures. It is one of the most applied formal organization models. In some societies and in some organizations, such rules may be strictly followed; in others, they may be little more than an empty formalism. * To facilitate the accomplishment of the goals of the organization: In a formal organization, the work is delegated to each individual of the organization. He/She works towards the attainment of definite goals, which are in compliance with the goals of the organization. * To facilitate the co-ordination of various activities: The authority, responsibility, and account ...

Quality Assurance
Quality assurance (QA) is the term used in both manufacturing and service industries to describe the systematic efforts taken to ensure that the product(s) delivered to customer(s) meet with the contractual and other agreed upon performance, design, reliability, and maintainability expectations of that customer. The core purpose of Quality Assurance is to prevent mistakes and defects in the development and production of both manufactured products, such as automobiles and shoes, and delivered services, such as automotive repair and athletic shoe design. Assuring quality and therefore avoiding problems and delays when delivering products or services to customers is what ISO 9000 defines as that "part of quality management focused on providing confidence that quality requirements will be fulfilled". This defect prevention aspect of quality assurance differs from the defect detection aspect of quality control and has been referred to as a ''shift left'' since it focuses on quality eff ...

American Society For Histocompatibility And Immunogenetics
The American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics is a scientific society that was established in 1972. It is responsible for accrediting HLA typing laboratories internationally to maintain the quality standards for histocompatibility testing between donors and recipients, with UNOS and NMDP utilizing its service to inspect and determine whether laboratories complied to industrial practices. They also published the first CWD (common and well documented) allele list, encouraging researchers to compare genetic differences between populations. The society sponsors the American College of Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (formerly the American College of Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics), and offers 5 levels of certification. The medical journal ''Human Immunology'' is published by Elsevier on behalf of the society. Awards The society also sponsors several awards in recognition of accomplishments and contributions to the field of histocompatibility and immunoge ...

Immunology Organizations
Immunology is a branch of medicineImmunology for Medical Students, Roderick Nairn, Matthew Helbert, Mosby, 2007 and biology that covers the medical study of immune systems in humans, animals, plants and sapient species. In such we can see there is a difference of human immunology and comparative immunology in veterinary medicine and animal biosciences. Immunology measures, uses charts and differentiate in context in medicine the studies of immunity on cell and molecular level, and the immune system as part of the physiological level as its functioning is of major importance. In the different states of both health, occurring symptoms and diseases; the functioning of the immune system and immunological responses such as autoimmune diseases, allergic hypersensitivities, or in some cases malfunctioning of immune system as for example in immunological disorders or in immune deficiency, and the specific transplant rejection) Immunology has applications in numerous disciplines of ...
