English Editing and Proofreading for Life Science and Medical Papers
Choosing the correct English proofreading service is essential to ensure that your paper receives the attention it needs, while making sure that you receive the best possible value for money. Whether your paper has just been written or is nearing acceptance in a peer-review journal, BIOEDIT has the service that is right for you by offering three levels of English proofreading and editing.
Proofreading: This is the most basic service we offer, and checks for English spelling and grammar mistakes in your manuscript without re-writing sentences or re-arranging scientific content.
Comprehensive Editing: This is our standard science editing service, which sees your paper edited for style and content by an expert, PhD-qualified science editor who understands your field.
Comprehensive Editing PLUS: Our premium service performs the same level of editing applied by the Comprehensive Editing service, but has your work read by two science editors to ensure the highest degree of quality is returned to you.
In addition to this, we also offer three different turnaround times. So depending on how soon you need your paper to be edited, we can return your work on time with the following choice of service speeds:
Regular - 7 days
Express - 4 days
Super Express - 48 hours
Take a look at our service pages below to choose which editing service is right for you. Then, calculate the cost of proofreading on our prices page:

Avoid beginning a sentence with an antecedent (e.g., “Its”) or a demonstrative pronoun (e.g., “this”).
When a number is used to describe a single measurement, a singular verb is used (10 ml was added). However, if the subject is considered in separate parts, a plural verb is required (10 ml drops were added one by one).
The definite and indefinite articles should be used in formal writing; however, they may be partially excluded in headings, titles, figures, and lists.
Avoid pleonasms: for example, are found to be in agreement-agree, give consideration to-consider, in order to-to.
When a sentence begins with a number, the number must be written in full.
Avoid using a split infinitive unless the sentence requires it to avoid awkwardness or confusion.
Do not use the possessive apostrophe in acronyms (Incorrect: DNA’s).
Do not begin sentences with “and”.
