Bio-Wissenschaft


Erklärung:
I have in the past translated Life Sciences as "gesundheitswissenschaftlich"; however, on recent trips to Europe I found that over there they use "Bio-Wissenschaft".
Let me know your choice.

Life Sciences: do not translate


Erklärung:
Gunter:
I have just come across a Swiss business publication where they use the English term throughout.
Go to ";www.google.com" and search for "Life Sciences" in German. You'll see.

I think the Swiss site is just playing international, your customer must decide if they want to play this unpleasant but increasingly popular game too.

Life Sciences


Erklärung:
Do not translate the term. I have assisted preparing IPOs for Austrian/German companies which engaged in Life Sciences and they definitely did not translate the term. I'm sure if you type in "Life Sciences" at Alta Vista and choose German as the language you'll find loads of websites.
