Скачать или смотреть The Quality in Medical Translation (QMT) Project, by Pablo Mugüerza Pecker (MD)

The QMT Project is a research study on the quality of medical translations, based on the original 2012 publication by Yana Onikiychuk, Ekaterina Chashnikova and Artem Karateev: "Medical Translation: A Retrospective Study on the Quality of Medical Translation Produced by Translators With and Without a Medical Background".

Starting from the question: "Who is better at medical translation: a linguist or a medical doctor or another person with a medical background?", I will present a summary of the rather surprising results of the study and announce the launch of its second phase, which I have joined as a co-author. A consideration of the possibility of extrapolating these results to other translation specialties is also included.
