<![CDATA[AMERICAN JOURNAL EXPERTS, LLC is a network of American Ph.D. graduate students and post docs dedicated to helping international researchers publish their findings in the best English language journals possible. In a perfect world, research would be judged on its own merits, not on the quality of the researcher's English language ability. In reality, we have found that both journal editors and readers will pay less attention to a research article written in imperfect English. We hope to fix this problem by providing international researchers with native English-speaking editors. American Journal Experts is hiring UT-Austin PhD graduate students and post docs as editors to proofread manuscripts written by foreign researchers. These researchers are seeking to publish in English language journals and need native English speakers to correct mistakes in their manuscripts. As an editor for AJE, you can read research in your own field when you get home from the lab for up to $25/hour. Get paid for what you do already! We also have openings for translators (Chinese, Portuguese, and Spanish) and content reviewers (must already have PhD, MD, or equivalent terminal degree). We understand that the obligations of your graduate study or post doctoral research are your first priority.
