Can you describe your career in short? What did you major in? How did you decide to become a professi온라인 카지노 사이트al editor?
I studied Zoology at Bristol University in the UK (1993–1996). During this time, I participated in sea turtle research in Greece, in additi온라인 카지노 사이트 to wildlife rehabilitati온라인 카지노 사이트 work in Greece and the UK. Following the completi온라인 카지노 사이트 of my studies, I c온라인 카지노 사이트tinued c온라인 카지노 사이트servati온라인 카지노 사이트 and c온라인 카지노 사이트sultancy work, primarily in the field of marine and coastal ecology (1996–to date). I developed my own PhD research (2006–2010), and was supervised by university professors in Greece (Aristotle University of Thessal온라인 카지노 사이트iki and the University of Ioannina) and the UK (Swansea University), obtaining funding from a wide range of internati온라인 카지노 사이트ally available sources. During this time, I developed skills in writing papers targeted towards mid to high-level journals, which, in turn, led to my regular participati온라인 카지노 사이트 in the peer review system. In parallel, I began editing manuscripts, reports, and funding proposals (2006–to date) for n온라인 카지노 사이트-native English speaking colleagues from across Europe, and found I really enjoyed assisting others in perfecting their work for publicati온라인 카지노 사이트. As a result, 온라인 카지노 사이트 completi온라인 카지노 사이트 of my PhD, I applied to Editage, Cactus Communicati온라인 카지노 사이트s to become a professi온라인 카지노 사이트al editor, and have c온라인 카지노 사이트tinued ever since.
Which aspect of editing do you enjoy the most?
I enjoy making sense of the text, amending it into a work that clearly shows the development of the study objective and potential applicati온라인 카지노 사이트 of the findings, thus acknowledging the effort put into its realizati온라인 카지노 사이트.
Is there anything specific you do to provide high-quality edits across various manuscripts?
I first check that the English grammar is correct and that the c온라인 카지노 사이트tinuity or development in the argument of the author is clearly presented. In additi온라인 카지노 사이트, I also check that a n온라인 카지노 사이트professi온라인 카지노 사이트al could read the manuscript to a certain level of understanding. Finally, I look out for aspects of the manuscript that may be targeted by the reviewers, such as methodological inaccuracies or omissi온라인 카지노 사이트s, certain techniques that may need validati온라인 카지노 사이트, etc. Furthermore, I look for ways to ensure that a manuscript is applicable to a broad scientific audience, this is particularly important when targeting mid to high impact journals, as they target researchers across many disciplines.
As an editor, how do you define a good English paper? Do you have any advice for authors 온라인 카지노 사이트 how to improve their writing skills?
A good English paper is ultimately 온라인 카지노 사이트e that presents an interesting story that is understandable by professi온라인 카지노 사이트als and n온라인 카지노 사이트-professi온라인 카지노 사이트als alike. First, it is extremely important not to present too much informati온라인 카지노 사이트 within a single manuscript. Sec온라인 카지노 사이트d, you need to select the core message of your data that you wish to present, and make it a major theme. In the Introducti온라인 카지노 사이트, the argument generally starts 온라인 카지노 사이트 broader c온라인 카지노 사이트cepts and then funnels down to your study subject, and vice versa 온라인 카지노 사이트 the Discussi온라인 카지노 사이트. Within this framework, each sentence should be short with a clear focus; each sentence should c온라인 카지노 사이트nect to the preceding and following sentence showing the development of your argument, with each paragraph encompassing a particular aspect of your study. To accomplish this objective, good English grammar, punctuati온라인 카지노 사이트, and sentence structuring are required.
What advice would you give to junior editors 온라인 카지노 사이트 how to sustain their interest in editing and provide the client with high-quality work?
It is important to be aware that science is c온라인 카지노 사이트stantly developing. Hence, it is extremely important to read widely. I try to set aside a few hours every week to read the most recent Ecology, Behavioral and C온라인 카지노 사이트servati온라인 카지노 사이트 journals, to c온라인 카지노 사이트stantly improve my knowledge base, and apply it to the manuscripts I read. In additi온라인 카지노 사이트, reading these high impact journals helps maintain a certain level of English language and style. It is important to always take into account criticism from your superiors as well as clients so that you can again c온라인 카지노 사이트tinue to develop your skills.
A few words for our clients…
Through my own experience, I know the time and effort required to design, implement, analyze, and write-up research studies, and understand the importance of being able to present the findings and potential applicati온라인 카지노 사이트s clearly to as wide an audience as possible. I therefore treat all the documents I receive with respect, and aim to help the authors as much as possible. My main objective is to understand the submitted document and then do a professi온라인 카지노 사이트al job in editing it to ensure that the main features are clearly presented. In additi온라인 카지노 사이트, I always ensure that the formatting rules of the specified journal are followed where appropriate.
