Editing and translation services for medical research

In Japan, editing and translation services for medical research have for a long time been much in demand, as the accuracy of communication in medical research is critical for human health and safety.

Similar efforts are also needed in health care generally, as the aging population in Japan is leading to an influx of nurses and doctors to help look after people.

If Thailand does not already have well-organised services for medical editing and translation, then there is surely a need for some organisation to be developed. This can be aimed at helping improve the communication of medical and health care knowledge in Thailand, and also at helping Thai nurses and/or doctors gain experience in Japan or other countries that have good medical research and training facilities, or that face shortages in medical and health care staff, or both.

Someone here might like to cross-post the discussion to our groups for editors and translators.
