Since then, Hill Top Research went on to develop standards for antiperspirant testing, skin irritation scoring, microbiology testing, dry skin studies and odor evaluation. Many of these standards are still considered the gold-standard used in today’s current clinical testing protocols.

In January 2011, Hill Top Research was acquired by one of India’s leading clinical research organizations, Cliantha Research Limited, extending Hill Top Research’s United States and Canada clinical site capabilities to include India. By working with our partner, additional testing is now available to our clients at a reduction in client cost.
