Biography: Since its launch in 2015, Filipodia has edited over 7000 science/medicine documents. These include over 3000 articles published in the World series journals of the Baishideng Publishing Group (BPG). Over 3000 other articles have been edited and benefited from Filipodia’s pre-peer review consultation for submission to peer review journals indexed in the most well-established academic literature databases, including the SCIE (Web of Science; 86%), PubMed (93%), and ESCI (Web of Science; 14%). Filipodia editors have also edited and consulted on over 1440 book chapters, grants, theses, clinical reports, medico legal reports, and clinical guidelines. Filipodia works with many recognized publishing companies, performing editing from early stages in the peer review process up to the copy editing immediately prior to final publication. Filipodia editors and subject matter experts (SMEs) have also guided publishers, universities and international agencies, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), in setting up peer-review journals, obtaining indexing in the various academic literature databases, and establishing publication guidelines, including Instructions to Authors and Ethics Standards. Filipodia’s President and Chief Writer & Editor, Dr. Jennifer van Velkinburgh, is a highly sought-after expert witness in the standards and norms of academic publication and ethics of science/medicine communication. She consults and testifies for plaintiffs and defendants in civil lawsuits, educating lawyers and the courts on these topics and rooting out junk science from the US court system. [-]
