I edit grant proposals and scientific manuscripts to help authors get funded and get published in high-impact journals.

Profile Summary

I've been a professional editor for 18 years and a professional scientific editor for the past 9, having trained at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. In 2013, I started my own editing business called Precision Scientific Editing (www.precisionscientificediting.com). My editing team and I edit grant proposals and scientific manuscripts to help researchers get funded and get published in high-impact professional journals. We also edit a wide variety of other documents (e.g., research and personal statements, CVs, formal letters, etc.) for scientists, researchers, and physicians, to help further their professional development and career success. We are experienced in editing documents from a wide variety of fields, from oncology and infectious diseases to nanomedicine and imaging technology.

In addition, I personally freelance copy edit for the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (Elsevier) and Nature Biotechnology (Nature Publishing Group).
