About Mélissa

Bordeaux and surrounding areas | Remote

With a PhD in Law and a background in scientific journalism, I am passionate about contributing to public information (general public, students, experts). I also have a passion for the editorial world, where I assist authors (manuscripts) and students (theses, dissertations).

The quality and rigor required for a doctoral thesis have allowed me to develop a strong work ethic, autonomy, organization, and speed. Therefore, you can contact me for urgent assignments, which I particularly appreciate as they are stimulating!

Rates are determined by several criteria: regularity (occasional or ongoing collaboration, e.g., number of articles/month), length (article, report, infographic, e-learning...), and target audience, which influences the technicality.

  • Scientific and general journalism
  • Scientific popularization
  • SEO and specialized web writing
  • Thematic reports
  • Training materials
Specialties:
  • Health, medicine, science, technology, environment;
  • Law, ethics, bioethics, public health, business, politics.
Strong interest in research and innovation applied to these fields (artificial intelligence, biotechnology, nanotechnology, robotics, engineering...).

Editing - Author/Student Support:
  • Proofreading and editing of your manuscripts
  • Partial or complete rewriting / Ghostwriting
  • Advice for improvement
  • Compliance with editorial standards
  • Verification and updating of data/information

You can also contact me for documents and reports.
