Congratulations to our New Inspectors!
The following individuals completed their first active inspection in the time period from January 2017 through September 2017. Congratulations and thank you for volunteering your time and expertise to advance cellular therapy! Organizations with personnel who also serve as FACT inspectors typically perform better during on-site inspections than their counterparts without an inspector. If you are interested in serving as an inspector, submit an online application!
