Range of Services
I work on a broad range of medical and scientific writing and editing projects.
I primarily accept projects with high science content that are intended for professional audiences, such as other scientists or physicians, granting agencies, or nonscientists with a specific need to understand scientific details (for example, pharmaceutical sales representatives or government agencies). I provide the following services:
- Structuring or rewriting text for clarity, logic, and flow
- Checking for accuracy and internal consistency
- Correcting grammar, punctuation, and usage
- Formatting for target publications and checking that requirements are met
- Primary research articles
- Review articles and book chapters
- Grant applications (with a focus on NIH grants)
- Slide decks
- Continuing education (CME)
- White papers
- Abstracts
- Posters
- Internal company documents
- Scientific platforms
- Sales training programs
- Advisory board meetings
- Executive summaries
- Presentations and graphics
- Preparation of slide and poster presentations, including use of PowerPoint
- Creation of tables and graphs
- Acquisition and manipulation of digital images, including use of Adobe Photoshop
- Design of non-photographic figures de novo, including use of Adobe Illustrator
- Layout using Adobe InDesign
- Basic HTML and CSS
I use various word processing, graphics, bibliographic, database, statistics, graphing, and spreadsheet programs on both Macintosh and PC platforms, and have expertise gathering information using PubMed and many other sources.
