Tracker is a secure, web-based platform that enables study teams to track and manage site activation activities in clinical trials.
"We chose goBalto Tracker as part of our study startup solution because it offers enhanced visibility into the traditionally cumbersome process of activating sites for clinical trials," said Alistair Macdonald, Chief Operating Officer at INC Research.
