"My experience in research, teaching, and scientific writing has centered on ecology and environmental science, with a particular focus on the causes and consequences of invasions of natural communities by nonnative organisms. During my dissertation and postdoctoral work at the University of South Florida and the University of Florida, respectively, I collaborated on multiple NSF grant applications, successfully obtained grant funding from various other sources, and published several papers in competitive journals, often as first author. In my current position as a senior Academic Editor at AJE, I use this experience to help other scientists more effectively communicate their work and achieve their publication goals."

"My areas of expertise are comparative physiology and evolutionary biology, and my research focused on a wide range of topics, including muscle physiology and carbohydrate metabolism, skeletal morphology, the evolution of metabolic rate, and the biomechanics and neuroanatomy of avian flight. In my 15 years as a researcher and professor, I collaborated on NSF and NIH grant applications at multiple R1 universities and was active in serving as a consultant to my peers on their own grant applications. In my current position as a manager of grant services at AJE, I use my experience as a scientist and an editor to ensure that work is matched with highly qualified members of our team to best meet the needs of our customers."

RESEARCHER

This is the second time we use AJE to improve our manuscript. In 2009, I have used the AJE service for the first time, and then my manuscript was accepted for the publication in a journal in a short time without any written English problem. Thanks AJE for the revision. I am very pleased with their work and I highly recommend their services. I have recommended them to my colleagues and will still use them myself for my future manuscripts.
