Expert scientific translation for research

Scientific language leaves no room for ambiguity. Whether your team publishes in high‑impact journals, runs multinational clinical trials, or files patents, translation must preserve meaning, methodology, and reproducibility. A mistranslated unit, reagent, or parameter can invalidate results, delay approvals, or risk safety. That’s why scientific translation demands sector‑savvy linguists and controlled terminology, not general language services.

Regulatory expectations intensify the need for precision. FDA, EMA, and ICH guidelines require consistent documentation—from protocols and patient materials to device IFUs and validation data. Translating for regulators means aligning with specific formats, style conventions, and risk language. Our translators follow documented processes, ensuring the translated content is defensible during audits and meets global authority standards.

Beyond compliance, scientific organizations translate to expand impact: publishing findings across languages, onboarding international study sites, and supporting technology transfer. Accurate localization increases readership, improves participant comprehension, and accelerates market access. For researchers moving between countries—e.g., obtaining positions in the United States—certified translations of diplomas, transcripts, and credentials are often required by universities, journals, and USCIS.

As a global agency, Kings of Translation provides certified translations accepted worldwide for academic, legal, immigration, and regulatory purposes. In the U.S., our certified translations meet USCIS requirements, and for international submissions we follow applicable authority guidance. The result is credibility with reviewers, confidence in cross‑site operations, and faster time to publication and approval.

Your content is handled by specialized translators with advanced scientific or medical backgrounds, supported by editor‑reviewers and in‑house QA. We maintain ISO 17100‑aligned workflows, are ATA members, and hold BBB A+ accreditation. For sensitive data, we offer secure NDAs, role‑based access, and optional HIPAA‑aware handling for patient‑related materials.

Consistency is enforced via custom termbases, approved glossaries, and client style guides. We leverage translation memory to improve accuracy and speed while reducing costs on repeat phrases. Every delivery undergoes bilingual review and terminology checks, ensuring names of molecules, pathways, instruments, and statistical methods are rendered correctly in the target language.

We understand compliance across regulations and standards impacting the scientific sector, including FDA, EMA, PMDA, ICH‑GCP, ISO 13485 for devices, and local ethics committee expectations. For journals, we follow author instructions precisely and adapt to reference styles. For clinical documents, we focus on readability to support participant comprehension without diluting scientific meaning.

Pricing is transparent: standard translation from $0.06 per word, with certified translations at $32.90 per page. Typical timelines are 24–48 hours for short files, with same‑day rush available. As a global agency trusted by returning clients (98% return rate), we align capacity, quality, and speed to your publishing, trial, and filing calendars—so science moves forward.
