Hello! My name is Elisa Martínez-Aznar, MSc MITI MCIL & Chartered Translator.

As a kid, I was always fascinated by medicine, but that all-so-common fear of needles steered me away from a career in the field. However, it remained my passion through the years, and I carried on learning as much as I could. And in 2009, I graduated with an MSc in Scientific, Technical and Medical Translation, passed with Distinction, from Imperial College London. Who would have thought I would end up devoting most of my adult years to it?!

Since then, I have been working in this industry for over 14 years as a Medical and Pharmaceutical Translator and proofreader, handling projects for some of the industry’s key companies, like Pfizer, Merck, GSK, AstraZeneca, Roche, Novartis, Icon and Celgene.

In 2014, I passed the Institute of Translation and Interpreting qualifed membership examination in the subject of Medicine and Pharmaceuticals. And shortly after, I also became a chartered member of the UK’s Chartered Institute of Linguists, solidifying my commitment to improving the standards of the profession.

 

I founded Synaptic Translations as a way to provide a highly-specialized service for companies in the life sciences field, using only highly-qualified translators with experience in this field. My team of carefully-selected translators are true professionals, and I treat them as such, providing them with the best work environment to guarantee they can produce translations of the highest quality by giving them adequate deadlines, honouring their rates and providing them with the support they need to bring out their best.

In my 14 years in the industry, I have handled a wide variety of projects for clients like you, so chances are I have encountered and helped resolve some of the problems you may be facing right now (e.g., making sure that your product’s documentation complies with local regulations to avoid unnecessary delays, adapting your message to better reach your clients in the target market and increase sales, etc). So, get in touch for a free consultation, where we can discuss how we can help you reach your goals in your target market.
