Editing Tips

For Science and Medical Writers

The articles in the sections below contain editing and proofreading tips and techniques, as well as other information that may be useful to writers.

If you have the time to work on your own editing before hiring an editor, and you would like to minimize your expenses, explore the article shown under Hiring a Medical Editor. You will find several ideas for revising your science or medical manuscript before having it professionally edited.

You will find two articles in the Proofreading section: one offers a free PDF download of proofreading marks and the other describes proofreading tips that I have found useful in my own work.

Editing Tips will evolve over time as new articles are added. Please contact me if you would like to learn about an editing or proofreading topic that is not shown, and I will try to add it.

In the meantime, if you need help with grammar, word usage, spelling, or punctuation, drop by English Grammar Tips.

For information on style rules or formatting references to complete your science or medical manuscript, please visit the Style Guides pages.
