The Company

Edit Associates has staff with more than 30 years of experience in scientific writing and editing. In recent years we have worked particularly with clients from Japan, Korea, Taiwan and China.

Our approach to editing your paper is holistic: we don't just correct the English, but we deal with your title, abstract, text, references, formulae and figures. We also compose your letter to the editor, if needed.

Our experience enables us to promise that we will significantly reduce or eliminate referees' comments. We do this by improving readability, one of the major factors of rejection in scientific publications. We will re-edit free of charge articles which were handled by us and still require language corrections. (We can promise this because we never had to fulfill this promise-:)).

Edit Associates is affiliated with INFORMAID, which provides a unique bibliography and reference search service, specializing in biology and health sciences. Our on-line services are courteous, our prices are competitive, our staff experienced in your field.

We also offer a translation service from Japanese, Hebrew, Romanian, French into English, with more languages to come.
