Testimonials

"Thank you so much for your time and support on this proposal. It can’t be done without you!" 

“Just wanted to share with you the good news that one R21 you edited received 3 percentile! I am very happy about it. Thank you so much for your help.”

"My K01 application was eventually funded by NIDDK. I truly truly truly appreciate your tremendous help during the application."  

“I have submitted three R01 grant applications, two of them will be reviewed soon and the third one will be early next year. For each of them, I got valuable help from [OORHS] regarding scientific reasoning, grantsmanship, and even English editing. [OOHRS] often went out of the way to look up the literature to find papers related to my grant applications.”

"You had some very helpful comments, particularly a number of key points that other readers missed, so it was extremely valuable."
