University research is pivotal in the development and understanding of the world in which we live and finding the answers to 21st Century ponderings. More often than not, audio recordings are conducted by universities to assist with this research, whether it be on the topic of medicine, law, science or engineering. Analysis of these recordings is inevitably much easier when you have a written transcript in front of you… And that’s where we come in!

We work with research institutes, universities, production companies and independent filmmakers on projects which involve either Japanese to Japanese transcription or alternatively Japanese to English direct translation from audio (or just as frequently) from video. Our clients’ demands are as varied as the material for transcription, which makes our job both interesting and at times really challenging.

We’ve recently been experiencing a huge spike in demand for medical transcripts. As pharmaceutical companies develop new drugs, so comes the need for clinical trials - to test the effectiveness of revolutionary new remedies. There is an ongoing need for extensive, quantitative and qualitative research, so that multinational corporations can evaluate the effectiveness of new treatments and medicines. Interviews are recorded with all those taking part, to collect the necessary data. These are then transcribed for further analysis. That’s where Knockhundred Translations steps in!
