Thanks to her exceptional work, the quality of our submission has been significantly improved.”

“The Academic Edit helped UOA Leaders to improve the readability of their research environment statements. But did much more than that. They also checked submissions against the institutional style guide, and checked the use of technical abbreviations. The engagement between academics and the copy-editors was managed very efficiently and courteously by the staff at Academic Edit.”
