Description
We are seeking a highly skilled French–English Translator to support our pharmaceutical operations by delivering accurate, consistent, and regulatory-compliant translations. The ideal candidate will have experience translating scientific, clinical, and regulatory content within the life sciences or pharmaceutical sector.
Key Responsibilities
We are on a mission to advance epicutaneous immunotherapy using our innovative technology platform, Viaskin™, to develop treatment options for immunologic diseases with significant unmet medical need.
This mission drives our commitment to the advancement of treatments for patients and their families. That is why we are investigating a potential new class of immunotherapy, epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT), that aims to re-educate the immune system of patients through the skin.
Today, we are focused on exploring the use of Viaskin to address food allergies, a devastating condition that afflicts millions of patients. As an important milestone in our journey, we hope to offer the first epicutaneous immunotherapy treatment for peanut allergy.
Tomorrow, as pioneers, we will continue to explore the broad applications of this potential new class of immunotherapy, including treatments for patients suffering from inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
