“It has been a fantastic journey since we started literally from the scratch. Our team has grown both professionally and in number, and now we are able to support clinical trials globally. The driving force for all of us has always been changing needs of the customers” – shared GCT President, Dr. Jeff Apter.

Eugene Selivra, CEO of GCT said, “GCT’s main objective has always been and remains the patients’ safety and well-being.

After all, behind all our success, stand the people who are talented, passionate, and devoted professionals. Our biggest achievement is the customers’ confidence and trust in GCT. What used to be an idea is now a reality.”
