logo BMSW

BioMedical Science Writers, LLC provides extremely high quality English language editing of scientific documents to assist scientists with communicating their work via published articles and with obtaining funding through successful research grant applications. We are expert in presentation of scientific ideas and data. Whether you need extensive editing and revising or simply a final polish, we can help you produce a fluent document that reads smoothly, is easily understood, and communicates your message accurately. 

The BioMedical Science Writers difference:

When you select a scientific editing service you might want to consider exactly who will be editing your manuscript and what that person's qualifications are. With us, you will always know who is editing your document because editing services at BioMedical Science Writers are provided by one highly qualified editor, Dr. Eric Milner, who provides superb service at a competitive rate. Dr. Milner has had a full career—as a highly successful academic scientist, as a reviewing editor, as an editorial board editor, and as a study section member.

Working with BioMedical Science Writers

What is it like working with BioMedical Science Writers? For established scientists, working with Dr. Milner is like working with a reliable colleague. Dr. Milner was a front-line, grant-supported faculty member for more than 20 years. For younger scientists who may be new to running their own lab and competing for funding, working with Dr. Milner can be like working with a knowledgeable mentor. In his career as an active scientist Dr. Milner trained numerous graduate students and post-docs, several of whom are current faculty members at major universities.

Non-native speakers of English

Scientists who are not native speakers (or writers) of English are at a particular disadvantage in preparing manuscripts for English language journals. One of our strengths is the ability both to understand the scientific meaning of a manuscript as well as to render the text into fluent English that says what you intend the manuscript to say.
