I'm a #MedicalEditor, so yeah, I think #science is important. But #scientific #research affects YOUR #health too. Changes planned by the US Office of Management & Budget would drastically cut back on US federal #grants for #research.

As a #MedicalEditor, I am so glad we have Ivan Oransky and @retractionwatch to keep us all informed about what's going on in #science! 🌟https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10755470261459855

In the journal #Nature, an #author asks: "My English skills are hurting my chances in #academic #publishing — how can I improve?" https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-01350-w
That is why I, as a longtime and respectful #MedicalEditor, specialize in #editing such authors' #research #papers before #submission to #MedicalJournals. www.kokedit.com

As both a #MedicalEditor and a person who has to deal with the US #healthcare system, I want to read this book by Miranda Yaver, an assistant professor of health policy and management at the University of Pittsburgh.

As a responsible #MedicalEditor, I explain to my #authors when it might not be immediately clear why I make a particular #edit.

#LinkedIn, you big silly! Though my LinkedIn profile makes it clear that I’m a #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor, you give me info on companies seeking a *medical doctor*. Your #algorithm doesn’t get it that “medical editor” *does not* necessarily mean “physician.” Please write a wiser algorithm!

Your #MedicalEditor is on #vacation in a cabin in gorgeous #Vermont with some family members and did *not* bring a computer or #manuscripts to #edit❣️

I'm going to have to put #MedComms Day on my calendar for next year. I forgot that today is MedComms Day 2025! https://www.ismpp.org/medcommsday
If you're a #MedicalEditor or #MedicalWriter, you'll want to learn more about the annual celebration.

This longtime #MedicalEditor is so angry on behalf of the #physician-#researchers whose papers she #edits for #publication!

#LinkedIn, you just don't get me, do you? If you'd use the services of humans instead of #AI, you'd send me emails about job ops and #freelancing ops I'm qualified for. I'm an experienced #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor, not a dentist, a CEO, or a mystery shopper. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/kokedit_linkedin-ai-medical-activity-7298051316067516419-KmZn/ 🙄

Current (2025) #profession-related data on me, your #MedicalEditor: 41 years in publishing, 30 of them in #medical #publishing; #self-employed full time since 1995.

I love it when the brains of the #author group, the #project #managers, and me all click on how to fix a #medical #manuscript issue. What a big serotonin hit! #MedicalEditor

How could I have forgotten my best personal remedy? I haven't had music playing lately while I #edit, but today I have #instrumental #Gaelic #music playing while I work. Music is #medicine. 🎶 #AmEditing #MedicalEditor #VoteToday

Your favorite #MedicalEditor in her office. And yes, that's a comfortable #gaming #chair she's sitting in. A person working at a desk has to take care of her back. #AmEditing

As of today, this #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor has #Medicare insurance coverage!!! Best, most affordable #HealthInsurance since she was an #employee back in 1995!!!!! 🎉🎊 #AmEditing

I love this letter that a fellow #MedicalEditor had #ArtificialIntelligence write for him: an angry, strongly worded Shakespearean letter to the editorial board of a #MedicalJournal that has been slow in getting a #manuscript through #PeerReview. https://tinyurl.com/54wnheap 😉 #AmEditing

Even if you're a #MedicalEditor and not a #MedicalWriter, you may be interested in what the American Medical Writers Association has to say in "An #Ethical Approach to Harnessing the Power of #AI for Medical #Writing": https://blog.amwa.org/an-ethical-approach-to-harnessing-the-power-of-ai-for-medical-writing . #AmEditing

As a #MedicalEditor helping #physician-#researchers refine their writing so #MedicalJournals will want to #publish their #articles, I'm frustrated by how people mess with #science. @RetractionWatch reports on ways #SciencePublishing is now fudging the truth: tinyurl.com/y8mpaanb #AmEditing

I'm enjoying my current #work #project so much! As a #MedicalEditor, I was asked to #edit #PatientEducation #documents to make them easily understandable by non–health-care pros. I'm making #health knowledge #accessible & removing some stress for parents whose children need medical care. 🫂 💕

As a #MedicalEditor and as someone who is in her sixties, I am very much in favor of *not* using #ageist #language when talking about #older #adults. Want some #tools for that? See my blog post: https://editor-mom.blogspot.com/2024/07/as-medical-editor-and-as-someone-who-is.html. #AmEditing

Not much action to see here—just your favorite #MedicalEditor at work, helping #physician-#researchers make the world a better place for patients by polishing their #research #manuscripts for submission to #MedicalJournals. #AMAManualOfStyle #AmEditing https://giphy.com/gifs/bigbrainholdings-sport-muscle-sweat-puWwzvaakttcpa7kVk

As a longtime #MedicalEditor, I'm happy to see the American Medical Writers Association finally offer this #certificate in #MedicalEditing: https://www.tinyurl.com/pj6xyeuh . Do be aware that a certificate program and #certification are not the same thing: http://editor-mom.blogspot.com/2016/05/a-certificate-program-and-certification.html

People take different paths to being a #freelance #editor. Here's Karen Klein's transition story in an open access article in Science Editor, journal of the Council of Science Editors. She provides 3 pieces of advice for moving into #SelfEmployment. #MedicalEditor http://tinyurl.com/ymas48zt

Who'd have thought it? A person can be a #MedicalEditor for more than 30 years & still come across a #science #word she'd never encountered! Here's a screenshot from Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary defining the word "lawn" (a #noun) as something other than a grass-covered area: "a relatively even layer of bacteria covering the surface of a culture medium." Who needs stimulants when #learning is its own high? #AmEditing

Here's how this #MedicalEditor gets ready for a day of #work: #snuggling with her #dog Colt.

Happiness for a #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor: Just before my family's camping vacation, I find out that a favorite physician-researcher from Japan will have a #journal #manuscript for me to #edit when I return. See you after a refreshing trip to the mountains! #Bookstodon
