Our services are not limited to pharmaceuticals. We also offer translations for medical equipments, academic papers for specialized publications, medical charts, as well as proofreading by specialists native to the given language. You can also rest assured that we take all possible security measures to protect your documents.
Also, based on the know-how developed through our medical and pharmaceutical translation experience, we are expanding our services to include bio-venture businesses that develop bio-medical and healthcare products including foods and cosmetics.
In June 2003, the Medical Writing Division was created for preparation of documents such as Clinical Study Report (CSR), Investigator's Brochures (IB), and Common Technical Documents (CTD).


MedDRA Compliance
As a Society of Japanese Pharmacopoeia JMO member, we offer MedDRA compliant translations.

Languages
We offer translation in a wide variety of languages, including English, Chinese, German, French and Italian.
Partnerships with overseas translation firms allow us to offer high quality medical and pharmaceutical translation from European languages into other Asian languages and vice versa.
We also have experience with translation assistance tools (i.e. Trados and so on) - please inquire for further details.


Quality Control
We have a crosscheck system in place with medical science, pharmaceutical doctors and proofreaders so that we can provide you translations with utmost satisfaction.

Translation Trial (Free Sample Translation)

We offer translation trials (about 130 words in English, 400 characters in Japanese) for first-time orders, large orders, and continuing orders. Because you can confirm the quality of the translation beforehand, you can feel secure placing an order with us. Please contact our Tokyo, Osaka or Nagoya office for further details.

Journal Article/Abstract Translation to English

Translation into English is conducted by Japanese translators with mastery of English and specialized knowledge in medicine and pharmacy.
Please contact us for specific rates.
Standard turnaround time is 7 to 10 days for an article and 3 days for an abstract.
Please send the manuscript to our Tokyo, Osaka or Nagoya office (by email, fax or post) and we will contact you with a price and turnaround time estimate. You may also use our on-line Estimate Request Form.
While we can offer partial translation with only the summary or the discussion, we ask that you please submit the entire article as well.
To maintain translation quality, we require a full understanding of the article and related technical terms and phrases. For this purpose we may request additional supporting reference documents.
We are able to prepare summaries kept under a certain length, however if the original article is especially long, we may ask you to edit the article so as to best honor the original author's intent.
We will adhere to any submission specifications you require, within reasonable parameters based on the original document.

Article revision is conducted by medical or pharmaceutical doctors.
Please contact us for specific rates.

Because revisions are made directly onto the data files, please send files as email attachments. Some applications can track and display changes for your reference.
If articles are sent by fax or as a hard copy, revisions will be made directly on the hard copy.
To maintain consistency and quality, we recommend conducting a check on the entire article. We can provide partial checks, but we ask that you provide the entire article and clearly mark the areas that require proofreading.
We will revise based on your specifications, provided that the original article is reasonably within the requirements.
