Language Editing Service
Clear writing improves peer review outcomes and helps biomaterials research reach a broader audience.
Service Overview
JBI offers optional language editing support for authors who want to improve grammar, clarity, and scientific presentation. The service is designed to help non native English speakers and busy research teams present their findings with confidence and precision.
Language editing focuses on readability and structure. It does not change scientific content, data, or conclusions. Authors remain responsible for the accuracy and integrity of the research.
Clear writing supports peer review and improves visibility in search platforms. Well structured abstracts and headings also help indexing systems classify your work correctly.
Who Benefits Most
The service is useful for authors preparing their first English language manuscript, teams with multiple co authors, or groups targeting clinical and industry audiences. Strong language makes complex biomaterials findings easier to evaluate and adopt.
Non Native English Authors
Improve grammar and phrasing while preserving technical meaning and scientific intent.
Multidisciplinary Teams
Align terminology across chemistry, engineering, and clinical language to reduce ambiguity.
Editing is also useful for revision rounds when reviewers request improvements to clarity, readability, or structure. It helps reduce misinterpretation and speeds decision making.
What The Service Covers
Grammar And Style
Sentence level corrections to improve clarity, flow, and consistency.
Technical Terminology
Consistency in biomaterials terms, abbreviations, and units.
Formatting Guidance
Alignment with JBI author instructions for headings and structure.
Clarity Review
Improved readability for multidisciplinary and clinical audiences.
Abstract Refinement
Sharper summaries that improve indexing and discoverability.
Reference Checks

Important Notes
Language editing is optional and does not guarantee acceptance. All manuscripts are evaluated on scientific merit, methodology, and relevance to the journal scope.
We recommend using the service before submission to avoid delays during peer review. Authors should review all edits and confirm technical accuracy before submitting the final version.
For complex technical content, provide a glossary of abbreviations and key terms. This ensures that field specific language is preserved while improving overall readability.
