With sixteen years experience in scientific research in Australia and the U.S., I know what examiners look for in a research-based Honours, Masters or PhD thesis. As well as having written, edited and proofread numerous research papers, I have worked on book chapters, methods articles and grant applications, and reviewed manuscripts for the Journal of Biological Chemistry. I am comfortable with highly technical subject matter from a wide range of scientific disciplines, and can help you with formatting and figures as well as text. I know how hard you have worked on your research; I can help you present it to its best advantage.
