About

I'm Kirsten of Crystallized Content. After obtaining my BSc (Med) (Hons) in Medical Biochemistry, my career began working in-house for an educational publishing company, where I was quickly promoted to assistant publisher and gained in-depth insight into the fast-paced publishing industry.

These days I'm a self-employed copyeditor and proofreader specializing in the biomedical sciences. I dabble in writing too. I'm passionate about medical education and love to translate scientific jargon into plain language, helping people understand complex topics. I believe this kind of work is particularly important in these murky times of misinformation.

Because every client and every project is unique, my rates are dependent on the work involved. Broadly speaking, my rates are generally in line with those suggested by the CIEP.

See below for an overview of the types of services I provide and feel free to get in touch to see how I can help you find clarity amidst the complexity!
