Scientific translation for researchers, labs and patent teams

BeTranslated translates research papers, theses, laboratory documentation and patent applications to and from Spanish and other languages. Each text goes to a native translator who works in your field, and a second specialist reviews it before delivery.

Send us your text with the journal, university or office it is for, and we reply with a free, no-obligation quote within 8 working hours.

Who we translate for

University lecturers and researchers

Journal articles, conference abstracts, grant proposals and book chapters. We follow the style and reference format of the journal you are targeting: send us its author guidelines with your text.

PhD students and postdocs

Theses, dissertation chapters and papers you want to publish in another language. Tell us your discipline and, if you have one, your glossary or earlier publications.

Laboratories and biotech companies

Lab manuals, SOPs, analytical methods and reports for audits, clients and authorities. We keep one glossary per project so the terminology stays the same across all your documents.

Patent attorneys and IP firms

Patent applications and claims for the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (OEPM), the European Patent Office and WIPO. The claims define the extent of protection, so every term in them matters.

Research protocols, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, scientific monographs, doctoral theses, conference abstracts and scientific presentations.

Laboratory and analysis

Lab manuals and SOPs, analytical methods, chemical synthesis reports, protein characterisation, cell culture protocols, genome sequencing and technical scientific reports.

Frequently asked questions about scientific translation

Can you translate my paper for an international journal?

Yes, from and into Spanish and other languages. Send us the journal’s author guidelines with your text, so we can follow its style and reference format. The decision to accept a paper is the editors’, and no translator can promise it.

Can you translate my thesis into English?

Yes. For a long thesis we confirm the price and the delivery date with the quote, so tell us the number of pages and your deadline when you ask for it.

Do you handle confidential research and unpublished data?

Yes. If you wish, we sign a confidentiality agreement (NDA) before we see your files.

Who translates my text?

A native translator who works in your field. A second specialist then reviews the translation before we deliver it.

How much does a scientific translation cost?

The price depends on the languages, the length and the subject. We confirm it with a free quote, with a reply within 8 working hours. See also how we calculate our rates.
