Low-Cost Manuscript Editing

ASK Scientific’s endeavour is to help researchers from across the world communicate their discoveries to a global audience. However, we realise that a number of researchers from low- and medium-income countries have funding restrictions that might prevent them from using language editing services. Hence, we recently launched the ASK Global Research Communication Initiative (GRCI^TM).

Language editing services we provide have improved the written quality of a large number of manuscripts, which in turn increase the chance of acceptance during a journal’s peer review process. Our services have helped researchers in countries across Europe, Asia and the Middle East publish in international peer reviewed journals. The GRCI^TM extends this service to researchers in 67 middle-income countries and 68 low-income countries. However to assist researchers, the majority who are likely to have funding constraints, GRCI^TM offers this service at a highly subsidised rate (30 or 50% discount depending on country). We categorised countries into the above discounted groups using GNI data from the World Bank, Battelle’s Global R&D funding forecast and our own research.

We hope this initiative helps researchers from these countries promote their findings to a global audience. This is our contribution, albeit a drop in the ocean, to the global innovation process!
