In addition, we have access to a large pool of hourly based clinical research nurses and clinical research physicians with long experience of clinical trials. Closely connected to CTC are also a number of experts in various therapeutic areas.

We believe that our workplace should not only be full of expertise but also of warmth, transparency and flexibility. A place that is open for fast adaptation to new, innovative techniques. Committed to our work, we aim for high-quality deliverables that will meet our clients’ expectations. We focus on personalised service with a collaborative and proactive approach. With all main functions under the same roof, we can commit to efficient information exchange, minimum response time and swift issue resolution.
