Stratalycs provides scientific writing services which include academic, scientific and English language manuscripts. We provide editing services in the Life Sciences field - biological science and bioinformatics - covering writing, reading, proofreading and publication support.
Our editors work within the subject matter rather than around it, so the language is corrected without the meaning drifting.
What this includes
Manuscript writing
Drafting from your data and notes, structured to the conventions of the target journal.
Editing and proofreading
Language, clarity and consistency, with tracked changes so every edit is reviewable.
Formatting and submission
Reference management, figure preparation and journal-specific formatting.
Publication support
Cover letters, and help responding to reviewer comments.
