The benefits of specialised scientific and medical editing

When you use a medical and scientific editing service offered by specialised editors with relevant academic backgrounds, you know your document is in the hands of an expert who understands the structure and terminology used in your field and how to present research and technical information perfectly—for any audience. At Capstone Editing, we hire highly qualified, published academic writers—typically with PhDs—and train them rigorously to provide the industry’s best scientific and medical editing service.

  • Our trained scientific and medical editors are also academics in relevant fields

    The majority have PhDs and strong publication records, and all have undertaken our exhaustive, specialised editor training. They understand why scientific and technical writing must be rigorous, objective, accurate, precise and consistent, and they know exactly how to achieve that.

  • Technical terms, statistics, mathematics and complex tables and figures are no problem for us

    As specialist medical and scientific editors, we deal with these every day. Unlike generalist editors, we know how to present them correctly and consistently to meet international scientific publication standards. We will format and present your data expertly to suit your audience.

  • We understand the unique requirements of scientific and technical publication

    As academic editing experts, we are intimately familiar with the language, formatting and referencing standards of universities and scientific and medical journals and publishers. Whatever your style requirements, we will ensure they are followed precisely.

  • We can help you write clearly and concisely for any audience

    From theses and peer-reviewed journal articles to popular science blogs and health information brochures, different documents demand different styles of language. As academics who are also English language experts, we can adapt your scientific or medical material to suit any audience.

How we can help

To publish scientific or medical articles, submit a research proposal or achieve a high grade on a thesis or dissertation, it’s not enough to know your subject well. Your document must be clearly written in correct English and follow specific formatting and referencing guidelines. This means it must be thoroughly edited and proofread—and this is where our services are invaluable. We are experts in the English editing of scientific manuscripts. We will ensure you present clear, concise arguments, even if English is not your first language or your grammar is not perfect. As specialist editors who are also academics, we are experts in both English and all the demands of scientific and medical writing.

We match you with the perfect editor for you

A year- old boy presented with complain of abdominal pain . The given case report illustrates a case of anaemia that, after investigation, was found to be a case of sickle-cell anaemia. Many investigations of blood were undertaken, including a complete blood count, haemoglobin electrophoresis test and blood film examination. These initial investigations showed, a decline in haemoglobin count, red blood cell (RBC) count and haematocrit, and an increase in mean cell haemoglobin and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration levels were found to be increased. (But, MCV) was in the normal ranges according to the test report. Red blood cells (RBC) not only appeared a less number but they also exhibited anisochromasia,their shape was abnormal, they appeared sickle shaped and boat shaped appearance, with polychromasia. The first diagnosiswhich came up revealed anaemia, but the differential diagnosis also includes sickle-cell/β thalassemia and sicklecell/ haemoglobin C disease. In this case history, clinical examination and the case presentation delivered a great deal of knowledge in diagnosing the disease. When the investigations were carried out in detail it showed strongly positive result with sick.

Contemporary feminist political economy and feminism as a sphere of analysis emerged through the women’s movement in the 1970’s. Feminist political economy is concerned with bringing women’s economic role and contributions to the fore. This was necessary as the two dominant theories—neoclassical economics and Marxian political economy—were seen as unable to provide a framework to consider how gender relates to the economy (Tong, 2009: 116). This short paper will outline why neoclassical economics continues to be incompatible with feminist political economy analyses. It will be argued that feminist political economy is not incompatible with Marxian political economy.
