Clinical Reference Laboratory (CRL) has fully integrated Laboratorio Hidalgo, its Argentina-based partner, to its worldwide network of labs, enhancing its South American presence. The agreement provides enhanced clinical trial support for CRL clients performing trials across North and South America, as well as immediate oversight and analysis of all clinical trial samples collected in South America through one system.
 
The integration of Laboratorio Hidalgo’s testing platforms into CRL’s LIMSystem provides full global project capability, as well as incorporates Hidalgo’s experience leading trials in South America.
 
Tim Sotos, chief executive officer of CRL, said, “Our expanding worldwide network provides us with a solid foundation for delivering a truly global clinical trials support service to our international clients.”
 
Dr. Elisa Hidalgo, owner and clinical trials director at Laboratorio Hidalgo, said, “Our philosophy at Laboratorio Hidalgo is to offer integrated solutions tailored to our customers’ needs and this formalized partnership with CRL reinforces this message and shows a major commitment to our ongoing relationship.”
