Statistical Scientific Editing was established in 2018, by Dr. Julian Norghauer, to fill a perceived but unmet growing need in research publishing: the better use and reporting of statistical analyses in addition to writing English well. He lives in Canada, near Montréal, Québec, where he earned his BSc in Biology (Hons.) from McGill University. Graduate studies at the University of Toronto led to an MFC (Master of Forest Conservation) and a PhD in forest ecology and management of mahogany trees in the Kayapo Indigenous Territory of the Brazilian Amazon.
From 2007 to 2015, Dr. Norghauer trained as a post-doc and taught as an Assistant and Senior Assistant at the Institute of Plant Sciences of the University of Bern in Switzerland. His research there examined the roles of herbivory, predation, disturbance, and seed dispersal in the population and community dynamics of rainforest trees in Korup National Park in Cameroon (Central Africa). Julian has first-authored 20 publications in refereed international journals, first-authored one book chapter, co-authored two more journal publications, and peer-reviewed more than 85 manuscripts for 34 journals. He is a member of the National Coalition of Independent Scholar (NCIS), Editors Canada, and the Council of Science Editors (CSE). He has edited/polished over 2000 scientific manuscripts, mostly for ESL authors. With his 15+ years experience in academic research and tropical biology fieldwork in Brazil and Cameroon, he appreciates the right use of applied statistics, knows how sound science works, and also what distinguishes good papers from poor ones. He's keen to help researchers improve how they conduct and communicate their science, so that their work gets published and is read widely. |
