Experienced (20+ years) freelance developer of higher education and scientific writer

Profile Summary

I am happy to advice on your design of science-based education (all levels). In addition, as a reviewer for several journals, I can help you writing a very well-structured research paper. I give workshops on the topic from my company 'Picamed' - if you are interested, please view my website picamed.com. Or, maybe even more interesting for you: I have a passion for writing for non-expert audiences on difficult topics and look forward do that for you! For more information, please have a look at my LinkedIn account: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivo-horn-a031b414/.
