Towards the end of 2014, we edited 45 proposals for the Office of Research and Support at Lingnan University in just under ...
Your success in gaining research funding depends on the ability to clearly articulate a complex proposal, which is precisely where our expertise is invaluable.
When editing a research grant proposal, we pay particular attention to how the background, proposed methodology and explanation of logistics are framed by an abstract, list of objectives and description of long-term impacts that clearly and logically emphasise the potential significance of the research. A subject specialist first works on aspects of the writing conventional to your field, and a language specialist then ensures that the result is readable by a broad range of possible reviewers.
Editing Scope
We edit papers from all fields, with the quality of our work having earned us respect across academia. Our editing improves documents in a number of areas:
Usage and Grammar
Complying with general usage and grammar conventions
Spelling & Punctuation
Ensuring correct spelling and appropriate punctuation to clarify your meaning
Standardisation of Terms
Checking for consistent use of key terminology
Writing Style
Improving the ways you combine usage, sentence elements and sentence groups
Fluency
Enhancing the ways you link associated data, findings and ideas
Structure
Refining the overall organisation of paragraphs and sections, where necessary
File Types
We can edit in all file types, including Word, LaTex and PDF. However, editing is much more efficient if we can use a Word or LaTex file. This allows us to edit electronically, rather than by hand. If we work with a PDF, then we must print the document and hand write the edits, making it much more difficult for you to incorporate the changes.
If you have the LaTex (.tex) file, we can open that in Word and edit it using the “Track Changes” function. We will be careful not to touch any of the LaTex code, meaning that you can copy the finalised document back into your LaTex editor.
Of course, if you would prefer not to send the Word or LaTex file, we can work on the printed PDF instead.
