Latinas Writing
Science
Program
Latinas Writing Science is a mentoring program where we guide you through the publication process of your scientific paper. Together, we review, edit and help you publish your scientific manuscript or abstract.
In a series of one-on-one virtual sessions, we get to know you and your work to take your manuscript to the next level. You will work closely together with our Spanish or Portuguese mentors to strengthen the cohesiveness, structure, and robustness of your paper. Once this is done, two of our volunteers will edit your manuscript's language. We also stick around to help you with the submission process.

What the program can do for you
Step 1
Let's talk about you and your project
We want to understand the message you want to convey and why your research is so exciting.
Step 2
Let's tell a nice story
Is your story clear and easy to understand? Let's declutter your manuscript of unnecessary information so your amazing findings can shine bright.
Step 3
Is this Spanglish or Portuglish?
It does not matter - our volunteers will fix the English for you. Just sit tight and wait for a full proofreading service at no cost.
Step 4
And ... Submit!
Our mentors stick around to help you edit the cover letter, understand journal guidelines and respond to reviewers, once you hear back from the editorial team of your target journal.
