Can you work with our existing content?What makes you different?
Absolutely. Many clients already have content they want reviewed, refined or fact-checked. I can audit existing materials, strengthen scientific accuracy, improve readability, align content with your brand voice and ensure references are up to date.
What is your typical turnaround time?
Turnaround times vary depending on project scope, but I aim to respond to all enquiries within 48 hours. Urgent projects may be accommodated where capacity allows. Timelines are always agreed before work begins to ensure expectations are clear from the outset.
What makes The Scientific Edit different from other copywriters?
Most copywriters are strong communicators. My advantage is combining communication, care and expertise with formal scientific training.
With degrees in Biomedical Science and Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine, I understand the science behind the content—not just how to write about it. This allows me to work confidently with emerging technologies, dermatology, skincare science, clinical research and evidence-based health topics.
I aim to prioritise creativity, innovation and accuracy at the centre of the work I do.
