Scientific editing

I offer professional, reliable editing of of scientific papers (substantive editing and copy-editing) in my specialist areas. I specialise in botany, ecology, viticulture, agriculture, forestry, and oenology. Editing can increase your chances of getting accepted by a good journal. It is particularly useful for authors whose first language is not English, but everyone can benefit from having their writing edited.

I can assist by reworking the text for clarity and coherence. This can include:

  • revising sentence and paragraph structure
  • correcting typos and grammatical errors
  • formatting your paper correctly for your target journal.
