SYDNEY, AU, June 15, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - The Asia-Pacific CRO Novotech has signed an MoU with China Medical University Hospital (CMUH) Taiwan to facilitate high-quality and rapid feasibility, start-up and recruitment processes.

Under the terms of the MoU, CMUH will provide professional and medical clinical trial advice to the Novotech team including feasibility, principal investigator selection, and assistance with patient recruitment.

CMUH-CTC was established in 2008 and has been led by distinguished Professor Chung Y. Hsu since 2010.
