How do you identify your testing partners for your in vivo evaluation projects ?
Your opinion matters!
We are glad to collect your opinion regarding your habits to manage the evaluation projects you implement for actives or personal care, whatever the subject: tolerance, consumer tests, biometrological measurements, or sensory analysis...
The aim of this survey is to know more about your expectations searching for classical or innovative in vivo clinical studies. Your answers will be part of a big survey that Skinobs is realizing in the field of evaluation. Your opinion will also help us to optimize the clinical testing platform to better answer your needs.
We will be delighted to share with you the result of this survey and the invitation link to its presentation webinar on the 16th of June (3pm CST). For that, just register at the end of the questionnaire to receive the report and the link for the webinar.
