About us

Cosnautas

About Cosnautas:

We are professionals in lexicography, terminology, translation, writing and editing, specialized in the field of biohealth sciences. Our goal is to promote top quality scientific communication and enable access to biomedical information in different languages.

Our Mission:

Medical language professionals invest a great deal of time searching for information disseminated over the Web. Most of the time this information is paramount for correctly understanding and translating the original text. Therefore, in addition to providing a widely assorted library of medical dictionaries that explore cultural and linguistic aspects in different languages, we have developed other innovative resources:

  • Árbol de Cos:  a huge database that collects links to reliable, multilingual, and top-quality information. Easily locatable through an optimized search engine that enables filtering based on the language, type of resource and medical specialty.
  • IRIS:  a tool that identifies and highlights all complex translation terms contained in the text and links them to entries of Cosnautas’ various resources that pick up relevant solutions.

Our Values:

Our endeavors are geared toward providing the utmost in quality, linguistic accuracy, efficiency, and productivity. We are well aware of the challenges translation and scientific communication pose, so we wish to furnish professionals with the best possible tools. We are constantly striving to perfect our resources, content, hyperlinks, and smart search engines.  We wish to become your greatest ally and be your competitive advantage.

Our Vision:

Accessing high-quality content from any device, always at your fingertips, and effective searches boost productivity for any professional. To that end, we decided to invest in cutting-edge computer engineering aimed at optimizing access to reference material.

Our Collaborators:

Our project would have been unattainable without the instrumental support of Tremédica, an association of medical translators that shares our goals, values and the highest levels of proficiency and self-demand. They account for our driving force and inspiration leading to a strong, close-knit international community. 

Project name

The name Cosnautas® originates from the island of Cos - birth place of Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine - and from the idea of travelling the web. The underlying metaphor is that cosnauts are internauts specialised in biomedical translation and writing, who turn to our resources to find the information they need for their challenging work.
