Science writing and content development
Scientell transforms scientific and technical content into information that is clear, engaging and understandable for government, industry, young people and other non-technical audiences. We regularly develop brochures, factsheets and reports. We write feature articles, science blogs and content for websites.
Effective scientific writing must be accessible to a wide audience. We specialise in presenting science in a variety of formats with varying degrees of technical detail. We strive for accuracy and clarity for non-specialist audiences.
Our team members have scientific qualifications and backgrounds, and are passionate about all things science. We understand the content, culture and context of science. This understanding, combined with our communication experience, enables us to provide a service that brings clarity and impact to your science. Our backgrounds enable us to understand the research, to design effective communication approaches, and produce engaging writing for a range of scientific areas.
Editorial services for clarity and accuracy
Scientell regularly edits scientific and technical documents to ensure they are well structured, clear and grammatically correct. We edit text so that it is easy to follow and understand, and is written in a way that is appropriate for the target audience.
When editing, we focus on grammar, style, clarity and consistency. We ensure technical terms are explained and abbreviations defined. We check that all cited references are included, and that tables and figures are understandable and properly captioned.
Scientell can undertake quick turn-around science editing, and we pride ourselves on delivering on time under tight deadlines.
Scientell creates a style sheet for each document that we work on to ensure consistency of terms used, capitalisation, spelling and other elements. We have developed checklists to ensure that all relevant components of the editing process have been completed. Substantive science editing ensures the document’s construction is logical and follows publishing conventions. It also includes ensuring the document has an optimal structure, content, language and style.
