Clinical Trial Translations

As clinical trials have become more international in scope, requirements and quality, a holistic approach to translation has become even more essential. Lingualife’s Life Science division provides translation, content creation and linguistic validation services to several international pharma companies and CROs. We translate a wide range of clinical trial documents, from patient questionnaires to case report forms. Our team of medical and legal translators consistently delivers linguistically accurate, culturally localized documents for the intended target audience ranging from patients, review boards, to healthcare professionals.

Regulatory Translations

Lingualife offers comprehensive regulatory translation solutions to help simplify the international compliance process and ensure accurate, on-time submissions. Whether you need to translate dossiers, exhibits, or IFUs, our regulatory translation team includes subject matter experts as well as in-country professionals with expertise in the regulatory laws and linguistic requirements of each target country. We always apply client-specific glossaries and enhanced CAT tools to ensure consistent terminology and error-free deliverables and provide translations in submission-ready templates and formats.

Medical devices

Compared to other industries, more rigorous expertise is required in the field of medicine and medical technology, which needs to be updated on a constant basis. Our translators know that medical and pharmaceutical translations can include a variety of different categories and divisions. They have profound knowledge and know which terminologies and language styles to use.

In addition to our translation teams, Lingualife also works with doctors and pharmacists. All experts involved have the required technical knowledge and are able to master the relevant languages in order to support our teams in the best possible way.

Lingualife provides professional translation and consulting services for a wide range of medical and pharmaceutical materials and sees itself as your language service provider throughout entire clinical trial processes.


Pharmacy and biotechnology

Hardly any other industry is subject to such rapid developments as the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. This not only requires extensive knowledge, but also a constant focus on the latest trends in science and research. This is why the Lingualife team includes graduate biologists and pharmacists, who are up-to-date on innovations and scientific business developments, and who are able to draw on this knowledge as part of the translation process.

To ensure optimum consistency, Lingualife uses customer/industry-specific terminology databases, which contain specialised terminology and established industry terms.
