Editor Profile

Scott Uzelman, PhD

Profile

While AI can copyedit your writing, expertise matters. I bring a deep interdisciplinary background in social theory to the editing process. I’ve drawn on this experience to help authors refine manuscripts for publication, develop and improve research and grant proposals, and sharpen applications for tenure and promotion. For academics in the social sciences, my editing services are akin to an initial round of peer review.
