an editing service for scientists
Services offered by BioMedical Science Writers, LLC
BioMedical Science Writers offers an integrated editing service. Our approach is to do what it takes—as much or as little—to make your document the best it can be. Our goal is to help you generate a manuscript that shows your science to its best advantage. We believe that our skills and experience make us uniquely qualified for this task.
Editing services we provide:
We proofread your document and perform basic copy editing including correcting spelling, grammar, punctuation, verb tense consistency, noun-verb agreement, and formatting consistency.
We edit for clarity and style. We eliminate jargon, smooth language, and rewrite to improve sentence clarity.
We may include substantive re-writing and reorganization to improve readability and clarity. We may return intermediate revisions for your review and feedback, and may consult with you by telephone. If you have specific requests or concerns regarding your manuscript, please tell us. We will do exactly what you want us to do. The result will be a document that reads well and communicates your message clearly and succinctly.
Scientific editing ...and much more!
Grant proposals:
Dr. Milner has written and been the principal investigator or co-principal investigator on numerous awarded research grants and contracts. He has served on study sections for the NIH and the Arthritis Foundation. He knows what grant reviewers want. His insider knowledge of the grant review process means that, as your proposal is being edited, any grantsmanship issues that might adversely affect how the study section views your proposal will be noted and alternatives will be suggested; common "kiss-of-death" faux pas will be pointed out and corrected; comments that you might reasonably expect to receive only from an experienced colleague who took the time to study your proposal also will be provided--because he is an experienced colleague and he will study your proposal.
What we will do:
We will acknowledge receipt of your document promptly. We will edit your document and return it to you in a timely fashion (standard turn-around is 5 days). The edits will be tracked and highlighted but not yet accepted so that you can see exactly what was done and have the option of accepting or rejecting each individual edit. If you wish, we can also provide a second copy of your document that has all of our edits incorporated in final form ready for submission.
Free Trial:
For a free, no obligation trial of our service, send a page (up to 250 words; no abstracts, please) of your document. We will return an edited version of your text for your consideration.Sending Your Document to BioMedical Science Writers
