AIP and Edanz Work to Support Authors

Melville, NY, March 21, 2011 — The American Institute of Physics (AIP) (www.aip.org ) and Edanz Group Ltd. (https://www.edanzediting.com/ ) today signed an understanding to make it easier and more cost-effective for AIP authors to use Edanz’s English language editing services, providing local support for authors in China and Japan.

“AIP is firmly committed to providing meaningful assistance to our authors,” said Mark Cassar, Publisher for AIP Journals. “To do this, we must be able to offer them exceptional services in their own language and in their own time zone. Edanz’s team of professionals will help our authors enhance the written quality and presentation of their manuscripts, which will benefit all parties in the publication chain.”

Edanz offers the services of experienced native English-speaking editors with expertise in the diverse scientific fields that are included in AIP’s publishing portfolio. Edanz will edit manuscripts for those authors who request help in preparing their papers for submission to AIP journals. In addition, Edanz can also provide assistance to authors for related activities such as writing cover letters and responding to peer review comments. Edanz will offer a 10% discount to AIP authors.

“The opening of AIP’s Beijing office in 2010 clearly showed AIP’s recognition of the important scientific research taking place in Asia today,” said Kerry Greer, President of Edanz Group Ltd. “As the only international English-language scientific editing service fully localized in China, Edanz is well placed to support AIP’s authors in this important and growing market.” AIP and Edanz will also coordinate joint training programs on effective communication of scientific research.
