Services
Our team of editors would be happy to edit any type of scientific document or correspondence you have written. For example:
SCIENTIFIC MANUSCRIPTS
Most of the documents we edit are manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals. We specialize in helping your science find its audience. As add-on services, we offer figure reports (to provide detailed feedback on figure presentation, check that figures are broadly accessible, and screen for inappropriate image manipulation) and figure editing (to produce publication-ready model diagrams, Venn diagrams, graphs, and more).
GRANT APPLICATIONS
We know how important it is for our clients to successfully apply for funding. We have edited grant proposals targeted to the NSF, DOE, USDA, and NIH, including graduate and post-graduate fellowships, and Small Business Innovation Research grants. We can help make your application clear and persuasive.
RESPONSE TO REVIEWER AND REBUTTAL LETTERS
In our roles as editors, we’ve read (and edited) a lot of response letters, so we can help make sure you respond clearly and completely, without sounding combative. We can’t guarantee that your paper will get accepted, but we can help you make the best case you possibly can.
JOB APPLICATIONS, CURRICULUM VITAE, TEACHING AND RESEARCH STATEMENTS, AND TENURE PACKETS
When you are ready for the next step in your career, you need a compelling, error-free application. We can help.
DISSERTATIONS, THESES, AND TEXTBOOK CHAPTERS
We can help you get your dissertation or book chapter into good shape before you send it to your thesis committee or publisher.
PRESENTATIONS, BROCHURES, AND WEBSITE TEXT
You want your meeting presentation, brochure, or website to appeal to a broad English-speaking audience. We can make sure your text and images work together to convey your message.
PEER REVIEWS AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL CORRESPONDENCE
We can assist you to make these clear and polished.

COACHING
If you, or perhaps one of your graduate students, wants to learn more about writing while improving your manuscript, we can coach you through multiple iterations, from preparing the figures to submitting the final manuscript. We enjoy working with scientists at all stages of their careers. Many of our graduate student authors have commented that they learn a lot about scientific manuscript writing through the comments and suggestions we provide during the editing process.
