Language revision aids
Contenu
The Plateforme nationale pour la recherche sur la fin de vie, with the support of the Caisse nationale de solidarité pour l'autonomie (CNSA), funds assistance with the linguistic revision of scientific texts in English. The aim is to support the international promotion of research results.
Objectives
The aim is to enable the proofreading, by native language editing professionals, of scientific texts in the field of end-of-life and palliative care previously written in English. This revision guarantees that the translated text is of a high standard of scientific writing before submission for publication in a selective journal of international repute.
Attention : as of July 1, 2024, the Platform's financial envelope having been exhausted, only applications falling within the scope of activities supported by the CNSA will be considered.
