So, we are very complementary”.
Driek Vergouwen, CEO of Cardialysis, adds: “Joining strengths means that our organizations together can offer complete clinical research services to our customers that combine scientific know-how with broad medical experience and outstanding international execution. Our mutual specialization in cardiology and metabolic diseases for many years makes us the preferred international partner for companies in need of high quality clinical studies in these fields.”
