Dr. Nathan B.に依頼

Spain

Experienced molecular virologist specialized in revision of scientific writing. Bilingual (Spanish/English).

プロフィール概要

As a PhD in molecular virology with 13+ years of benchtop experience leading to 35 peer-reviewed articles, I know what makes a good paper. Let me help you improve yours today! English: native Spanish: advanced I can provide Spanish <-> English translation Extensive editing experience in the fields of virology, neurobiology and structural biology. I have personally worked with >40 distinct research groups from diverse cultural backgrounds (mainly from Spain and China), resulting in publication of more than 145 journal articles and grant applications. Served as ad-hoc reviewer for several top journals including Journal of General Virology, PLoS One, and Virus Research. Every step of my adult life has involved either the pursuit of learning or helping others to achieve their academic goals. My extensive background in basic science makes me uniquely suited to the revision of scientific writing, and it is something I really enjoy. I have a sharp critical eye when reading, and small mistakes seem to jump off the page.
