Webinar description
Accuracy in translation terminology is important to the localization of any content. Like many aspects of the highly regulated environment of medical products and services, the translation and localization of medical content has unique challenges and translation accuracy can take on life-and-death importance.
The overall quality of medical translations is highly dependent on the teamwork environment established between customer and localization service provider. Capitalizing on their experience creating this type of interactive partnership, Healthwise—a developer of consumer health content—and ENLASO will discuss the building blocks to creating a collaborative translation partnership.
In this interactive one-hour presentation, Andrea Blum, Director of Print and Translation Services at Healthwise will share her experience managing localization on the customer side, including:
- the challenges within a typical localization project;
- the solutions to those challenges, and how to implement them proactively;
- and the value and challenges of medical reviews and internal reviews.
From the supplier side, David Dunn, Account Manager at ENLASO will discuss:
- setting up processes and timelines for a medical translation project;
- the collaborative customer-vendor model;
- terminology management;
- and tools and technologies to enhance the localization process.
The presentation is of particular interest to customer-side-professionals involved in the localization and translation process of medical and life sciences content. The Webinar also features a short introduction to Rhonix, a new online community where members from the medical and life sciences domains are able to ask questions and discuss topics about localization and translation with experts from around the world.
