A brief history of CTC Netherlands

Start of CTC Netherlands

CTC Netherlands is built on a strong foundation of clinical pharmacology expertise with deep roots in the Netherlands. Our journey traces back to the early 1980s when Prof. Jan Hasker Jonkman established Pharma Bio-Research, pioneering clinical pharmacology studies in the region.

Around the same time, Dr. Bengt Dahlström founded a clinical site in Sweden, which has since grown into CTC Sweden.
