Learn More About Medical Editing From Me This Spring

Listen up, you freelance editors who do medical editing or want to move into the field: I'll present "Avoiding Pitfalls in Medical Editing" at the March 2015 annual conference of the American Copy Editors Society in Pittsburgh!

Medical editing has its own special considerations and pitfalls. In my session, I'll focus on

  • Editing conventions
  • Research reports versus materials for laypeople
  • Jargon
  • Patient-friendly language
  • Statistics
  • Reference lists
  • Word pileups
  • Necessary reference works
I'll also give you tips on how to move into the niche of medical editing and where to find clients.

Sign up now for the conference before spaces run out!
