PhD Molecular Biologist | Expert in Scientific Editing, Manuscript Review & Grant Proposal Support

Profile Summary

I am Dr. Dennis Torkornoo, a molecular and cell biologist with a PhD from Friedrich-Schiller University Jena, Germany, and postdoctoral research experience at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden. My research experience spans molecular cell biology, pharmacogenomics, gene regulation (MYC/WNT signaling), and RNA localization studies. I have published and collaborated across Europe and Africa, giving me a strong understanding of diverse scientific writing styles and publication standards. What I Offer: Scientific editing and proofreading for manuscripts, theses, and reports Grant proposal review and restructuring for clarity, logic, and impact Data presentation & figure refinement (GraphPad Prism, Excel, Illustrator) Literature review and reference formatting (APA, Nature, Vancouver, etc.) Consultation on experimental design, result interpretation, and publication strategy My approach goes beyond grammar — I help researchers refine structure, tone, and scientific clarity, ensuring their work is precise and impactful. Having worked in both academic and collaborative research environments, I understand the pressures of publishing and funding. My goal is to help you communicate your science clearly and effectively, no matter your background or discipline. Let’s make your research stand out — with clarity, quality, and confidence
