Our Life Sciences Translation Solutions: No Room for Error
In the life science sector, while effective communication can save millions of lives, a translation error can endanger the same number of people.
When translating the highly technical and the very sensitive content of life sciences, there is no room for mistranslations or inaccuracies. Only the highest quality translations are the only acceptable path. Anything less than that is simply not viable.
At AsiaLocalize, specifically in our life sciences translation services, we consider accurate translation and localization service a prerequisite to competence.
With over 12 years of experience in life science and medical document translation services, we strive and work towards the aim of providing multilingual accessibility to life sciences content in health, medicine, agriculture, food science, and the pharmaceutical industry.
Equipped with our subject-matter experts, highly skilled project managers, and rigorous quality control processes, we approach any life science translation project of any level of complexity with ease and speed.

In-country Subject-matter Experts
Nativeness in the target language is a must to get life science documentation complying with the target locale’s laws and regulations. That’s why we ensure you have access to native linguists who work in their mother tongue and possess a high level of subject-matter expertise.
Our medical translators have a minimum of 5 years of experience in the given subject matter, whether it be biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, biomedical technologies, cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals, biophysics, or neuroscience.
They aren’t only acquainted with the complexities of the target language but also know how to deal with the most complex subjects, finding the most fitting equivalent terminology in the target language for the trickest terms.
They ensure that the most complex scientific concepts and data are conveyed in the target language while maintaining the original meaning and intent of the original text. They also consider the target audience, whether they are professionals or lay audiences.
Our team of experts proudly serves all types of companies in the life sciences industry. We work with those involved in research, biotechnology-based medicines and food, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, nutraceuticals, biomedical technologies, food processing, and cosmeceuticals. Whatever your area of specialization, we have the knowledge and experience to assist you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Machine Translation Allowed for Life Sciences?
Machine translation has become increasingly prevalent in many fields. However, it’s not recommended to use it for this type of content.
Machine translation struggles to deal with the complexity of life science industry terminology, understand cultural and linguistic nuances, and deliver regulatory-compliant translations in a highly regulated industry.
While AI tools may offer initial translation drafts, human review and editing are indispensable to: refine the content, ensure consistent medical terminology use, verify factual accuracy, and apply specialist domain knowledge – essential for this field.
What Do Life Science Translators Do?
Life science translators specialize in translating documents and content related to the fields of biology, medicine, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
These translators must have a deep understanding of both the source and target languages, as well as the specific terminologies and concepts of the life sciences. It is even much better that they are native to the target language and locally based in the target region.
So, what are the key responsibilities of life science translators?
- Translating regulatory documents and ensuring they are high-quality so that they meet the legal and compliance standards required in different countries.
- Ensuring that the content is appropriate for the target audience’s level of understanding, whether they are professionals in the field or laypersons.
- Adapting content to reflect cultural sensitivities and norms of the target audience, enhancing comprehension and acceptance.
- Handling sensitive medical information with the utmost confidentiality and adhering to ethical standards in translation.
