Manuscript Editing for Frontiers in Microbiology Journal Articles
Frontiers in Microbiology studies microbial communities across the habitable world, including strategies to reduce the harm human activity does to their abundance, diversity, and activity. Frontiers Media SA publishes it fully open access, and its field chief editor is at the Teagasc Food Research Centre in Ireland.
Original Research, Reviews, Methods, and Hypothesis and Theory articles run up to 12,000 words. Mini Reviews and Perspectives hold to 3,000 words and two figures or tables, and Opinions to 2,000 words. The abstract is a single structured paragraph, followed by five to eight keywords. A separate 200-word scope statement goes in at submission, and the first page states the word count and number of figures and tables. Sequence data go to GenBank, DDBJ, or ENA, and every article carries a data availability statement. American English is the default. Review is single-anonymized, with an interactive review stage. Off the Grid Editing applies the journal's instructions when you send them, including its reference style. Submissions go through the Frontiers online submission system.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Frontiers in Microbiology
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Frontiers in Microbiology.
The Frontiers in Microbiology author guidelines cover article types, data, and figures. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our scientific editing services include biological copy editing, line editing, LaTeX and Overleaf editing, and Vancouver and author-date citation formatting. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Microorganisms and Frontiers in Plant Science.
