Linda A Turner

Profile

I have a PhD in Epidemiology and Biostatistics, an editing certificate from George Brown College, and I am currently working as a freelance copyeditor for a online Canadian medical journal. I have published articles in medical journals and have written reviews for health organizations including the Public Health Agency of Canada, the Canadian Cancer Society, and the Canadian Institute for Health Information. I know that an editor can make life easier. With my years of experience and editing skills, I can bring out the best in the text, help authors communicate well in English, and ensure that the text is at a level appropriate to the audience and the project.

I can help prepare manuscripts for submission to medical journals and help ensure that applications for funding and research ethics board approval meet requirements. 

I also analyze data, am knowledgeable in statistics, and prepare and edit tables, graphs, and other visual presentations of numbers.
