The SCoA Manuscript Office uses its staff's extensive experience in editorial mentoring and article/grant writing to assist with projects developed within the Center. It provides assistance in development, planning, writing and editing of journal articles, as well as in post-submission issues such as responding to reviewers' comments. Manuscript Office staff also help produce large, multi-investigator grants, and help with development and writing of individual proposals.
