Courses and
Workshops
(See
course locations.)
I lead workshop-style courses and workshops for small groups of professional
researchers writing for publication, and for research supervisors looking for a
clear and effective way to mentor the writing of others. These are most
commonly 10, 3-hour sessions, with follow-up to article acceptance, but single
workshops and short courses can be arranged.
Articles written during the 10-session
life science course have been published in many journals, including (but not
limited to): Amyloid, The Journal of Protein Folding Disorders , Animal
Biotechnology, Animal Feed Science and Technology, Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, Aquaculture Research, Avian Diseases, British
Poultry Science, Cryobiology,
Cytogenetics
and Cell Genetics, Domestic Animal Endocrinology, Equine Veterinary Journal, European Journal of Immunology, Histology and Histopathology: Cellular and
Molecular Biology, Journal of
Virology, Journal of Animal Science, Journal of
Clinical Microbiology, Journal of
Dairy Research, Journal of Geophysical Research, Journal of
Immunology, Journal of
Nematology, Journal of the American Veterinary Medical
Association, Journal
of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Journal of
Veterinary Medicine, Livestock
Production Science, Mammalian
Genome, Meat Science, Molecular
Reproduction and Development, Physiology
and Behavior, Preventive
Veterinary Medicine, Reproduction, Research
in Veterinary Science, TeleMetronics BioMetry, Theriogenology,
Tijdschrift voor Diergeneeskunde, Toxicology
Letters, Vaccine, Veterinary
Immunology and Immunopathology,
Veterinary
Parasitology, Veterinary Research and the World’s
Poultry Science Journal, among others. Some
participants have also used the course to prepare successful funding proposals.
(If you took the course and I have omitted your publication, did you remember
to send me an offprint? Please do.)
Technical Writing and Editing (usually 10 sessions)
Papers
written during this course have been produced for a number of companies,
including (but not limited to) ABB, Akzo-Nobel, Delft University of Technology, Océ,
Philips, Schlumberger, Shell, Siemens, TNO and the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven,
and/or have been published in journals, formed portions of PhD dissertations or
been presented at international conferences. Since a number of these papers
have been confidential, I collected no offprints.
Writing for Academic Publication in
the Social Sciences (negotiable)
Papers
written during this course have been published in journals or presented at
international conferences or formed portions of PhD dissertations. My personal
experience with social science editing includes many years with a social
science journal (Sage, Blackwell),
working with several other journals and editing numerous books and articles for
(or for publication by) many institutions and publishers, including: Cambridge University, Edward Vermeer
Foundation, Institute of Social Studies, Information Design Journal (John
Benjamins), Lynne Reiner Books, Macmillan, Oxford University Press, Royal
Institute of the Tropics, Shaker Press, St. Martin’s Press, John Wiley &
Sons and Zed Books.
Courses
are planned in Europe and Africa (see course locations), but
other travel is possible and a new venue can be arranged. Contact me for details.
Editing
Editing
services are available for academic books and articles, either to academic publishers
or to individuals. When you ask for
details, please be certain that the
subject line in your email is clear, to distinguish your message from spam.
Handbooks
Three handbooks
based on the courses are planned. The first is now in press. I apologise for
the delay.
