Condense Scientific Paper to 8K
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I have a 12,000-word scientific manuscript that must be trimmed to roughly 8,000 words without sacrificing technical accuracy. The priority is clear: simplify the language so it reads smoothly for specialists and informed non-experts alike, striking a balanced tone that is neither overly formal nor too casual.
All sections must remain coherent and properly referenced—figures, tables, and in-text citations should still align after the cut. Please retain key data, equations, and critical arguments, but feel free to tighten phrasing, combine overlapping paragraphs, and remove redundancies where possible.
Deliverables
• An 8,000-word version with Track Changes enabled so I can review every edit
• A clean, final copy ready for journal submission
I work in Word, so edits should be returned in .docx format. Once we agree on a start date, I’ll send the current manuscript and any journal guidelines that may influence phrasing or structure.
