CLEVELAND, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DATATRAK International, Inc. (OTCQX: DATA), a technology and services company focused on global eClinical solutions for the clinical trials industry, today announced the appointment of William (Bill) Gluck, Ph.D., as the company’s Vice President of Clinical and Consulting Services. Dr. Gluck, a thirty-year clinical trial industry veteran, will focus on building the company’s consulting and clinical services business, which has received increased interest since the announcement of DATATRAK ONE as a breakthrough approach to safety, simplicity and speed in eClinical solutions.
“With the growing concern of quality and safety in clinical studies, the financial burdens from the drop in approved drugs and the complexity of information silos due to integrated products, the addition of Bill to our team will strengthen our delivery of DATATRAK ONE,” said Laurence P. Birch, DATATRAK’s Chairman of the Board. “Bill’s expertise will allow us to expand our offerings resulting in increased customer satisfaction and market share.”
Dr. Gluck has diversified experience in clinical trial management systems, electronic data capture and the services that surround these solutions. Prior to joining DATATRAK, he served in management roles in sponsor companies for over 18 years including Amgen, BASF Life Sciences, Gilead Sciences, and Triangle Pharmaceuticals. He also brings the perspective of the very important CRO organization having served in them for seven years. Finally, Dr. Gluck continues to apply his skills in academia in university settings.
“I believe that DATATRAK has the right vision to focus on improving the total clinical process for clients, not simply their technology choices,” said Dr. Gluck. He stated further, “I am excited to join DATATRAK’s quality team of professionals in executing their vision to become the clinical enterprise solution to safely accelerate every drug, every biologic and every device from concept to cure.”
