Thank you, Christine. Good morning and good evening, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. We entered 2025 with a conviction that this would be a pivotal year for Zalai, a year where strong execution disciplined growth, and scientific innovation would begin to shape our long-term trajectory. Let me be clear, our conviction the strength of our business fundamentals and strategic direction remains strong. As we close out the first quarter, we're reaffirming our full-year revenue guidance of between 560 million to 590 million dollars. We anticipate accelerating sales growth in the next three quarters, which will translate into significant operating leverage and keep us on track to achieve profitability by Q4 of this year. Before I turn the call over to Josh to discuss our Q1 performance, I want to share my excitement for the road ahead. Cell Life has a differentiated and high-potential portfolio, including multiple regional first or best-in-class assets that are poised to deliver significant long-term value. This includes pipeline of product opportunities like VivGuard and Povitacis, as well as other potential blockbusters like bimethylamide in gastric cancer, CAR-C in schizophrenia, and TT field in pancreatic cancer. We are confident in delivering our 2025 revenue targets and surpassing $2 billion by 2028 with strong momentum carrying well into the 2030s. Our original business is already commercially profitable with a clear growth runway. And we'll continue to add new assets with discipline and focus. At the same time, we've made bold investments to accelerate our global R&D pipeline. Our lead global asset, GL1310, is a potential first in pricing class DL3 ADC. We'll present updated phase one data in small cell lung cancer at ASCO in June and outline our broader development strategy across multiple indications, including a registration of trial that positions us for a potential FDA approval in 2027, a milestone that would elevate our position on the global stage. Beyond 1310, We're advancing our next wave of innovation. GL6201, our novel LRC15 ADC for solid tumors, and GL1503, the first in class L13, L31b specific for atopic dermatitis, are both expected to enter the clinics this year. further expanding our global oncology immunology pipeline. Looking ahead, we see clear drivers of margin expansion, increased scale with regard, efficient new launches that leverage our existing infrastructure, manufacturing localization, and the ramp up of high-value global assets. These efforts are building their lives into a profitable, high-growth business with global impact. We're just getting started, and I look forward to updating you on our progress throughout the year. Now, I turn the call over to Josh. Josh?
