The terminology used in Science is very specific. One could say it’s a language on its own. A good science translator needs to be familiar with this terminology, in both the source and target language. Which I am! I have a PhD in Biology and 5 years of experience in academic research. I now want to combine my two passions: Science & Language
I have a PhD in Plant Biology and 5 years of experience in academic research. Areas I specialize in:
Botany
Molecular Biology
Cell Biology
Microbiology
Biochemistry

Agriculture
I am a science writer
I wrote and published my own peer-reviewed articles and participated in various international congresses. In 2020, I was chosen as a recognized Plant Cell author. I have wide experience in writing, proofreading, and editing scientific content in both English and French.
I am passionate
I keep myself informed of scientific progress by reading science articles in specialized magazines, my favorite one being the New Scientist. My dream would be to translate their articles into French, to make their content accessible to a larger audience.
Your French science expert
If you are a scientist and want your publications to have more impact in the world or if you work in science communication and are looking to grow your readership, you found the right person.
I offer translations of:
Articles
Academic manuscripts
Patents
Educational content
etc.
Why you want to work with me
I’ve been there. I know that, as a scientist, your publications are the major, if not the only way to promote your research activities.
I take my work seriously. Delivering good quality material within the set deadline is my number one priority.
I am a bird of prey when it comes to proofreading.
I am easy to communicate with and open to any kind of feedback.
I enlisted Cécile Sözen for a translation project for blog posts of literary criticism, and she provided first rate work. She was friendly, professional, and an effective communicator throughout the project. She instilled me with confidence in her abilities immediately. She delivered the project quickly and kept me informed every step of the way. The quality was excellent; she was respectful of the original posts and sensitive to the nuances of their language. I was impressed with her grasp of the genre, and collaborating with her on specific turns of phrase proved her to be an outstanding problem solver. I have the utmost confidence in her abilities to take on translation projects regardless of the subject matter. I enjoyed working with her very much and hope to collaborate with her on more work in the future.
