Manuscript Editing for JAMA Network Open Journal Articles
Launched in 2018, JAMA Network Open aims to improve health, health care, and health equity worldwide, publishing open-access research across clinical care and health policy. The American Medical Association publishes it, and its editor is at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine.
Original Investigations run 3,000 words with up to five tables and figures, a structured abstract of up to 350 words, and three Key Points; research letters run 800 words. References follow the AMA Manual of Style, 11th edition, with superscript numbers, listing three authors and et al when there are more than six. Each design follows its EQUATOR guideline, trials are registered before enrollment, and research articles carry a data sharing statement. Manuscripts go in as Word files. An article processing charge applies, with waivers for eligible countries. Review is single-anonymized. Our editors apply AMA style and write the Key Points. Submissions go through the journal's online system.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to JAMA Network Open. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for JAMA Network Open
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 JAMA Network Open.
The journal's instructions for authors cover article types, abstracts, and reporting. 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 medical copy editing, line editing, LaTeX and Overleaf editing, and AMA and ICMJE 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 JAMA and BMC Medicine.
