The clinical and scientific documents our medical writers draft
Every project at Research Gold is handled by a PhD medical writer with a peer-reviewed publication record, not a generalist copywriter. We cover two distinct tracks under one roof:
- Academic and scientific medical writing: original research manuscripts, systematic review and meta-analysis manuscripts, review articles, case reports, conference abstracts, and posters. This is the work researchers also search for as scientific article writing or a research paper writing service: we draft your study into a finished paper rather than editing one you already have.
- Regulatory writing: clinical study reports, clinical evaluation report support, and regulatory submission documents, the core of regulatory medical writing, led by writers with the biostatistics and methodology depth these documents demand.
Whether you need a single journal article or a full clinical document, you get a matched writer, a transparent scope, and a fixed quote before any work begins.
Academic versus regulatory medical writing
Not all medical writing is the same, and the right writer depends on the document.
Academic medical writing is built for publication. The audience is journal editors, peer reviewers, and the wider research community. The work follows the IMRAD structure (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion), conforms to the reporting guideline that fits your design under the EQUATOR Network reporting guidelines, applies the AMA Manual of Style, 11th edition (2020) where the target journal requires it, and is formatted to your target journal's conventions. This is where our medical manuscript writing service and biostatistics team are at their strongest.
Regulatory medical writing is built for submission and review by sponsors, ethics committees, and regulators. It includes a clinical study report that follows a structured results narrative, a clinical evaluation report that synthesizes clinical evidence for a device or intervention, and supporting submission documents. These documents reward methodological rigor and accurate statistical reporting, which is the core of what our team does every day.
If you are unsure which track your project needs, describe it in the quote form and a PhD methodologist will tell you, with no obligation.
Hire a medical writer without the freelancer risk
Hiring a lone freelance medical writer on a marketplace carries real risk: will the writer have the right subject expertise, will they hit the deadline, and will your unpublished data stay confidential? A medical writing company with an accountable team removes those risks.
When you hire a medical writer through Research Gold, you get:
- A PhD medical writer published in your field who knows your target journal's conventions, drawn from nine PhD methodologists on the team working across health sciences, clinical medicine, nursing, public health, and beyond, backed by an editorial team and biostatisticians
- A mutual non-disclosure agreement on request, so your unpublished data is protected
- Unlimited revisions until you are satisfied
- Transparent, ICMJE-compliant authorship, never anonymous ghostwriting
You get the flexibility and value of a freelancer with the accountability and depth of a professional team. This is what makes professional medical writing services worth more than the cheapest bid.
Medical manuscript writing and clinical documents we draft
We draft complete documents from your data, not just edits of an existing draft.
- Original research manuscripts. Drafted from your raw data and protocol, with the methods section following the reporting guideline that fits your design, depending on your study type: CONSORT for randomized trials (Schulz et al., BMJ, 2010), STROBE for observational studies (von Elm et al., 2007), or STARD for diagnostic accuracy studies, and results presented with appropriate tables, figures, and statistical interpretation.
- Systematic review and meta-analysis manuscripts. Full IMRAD write-ups following PRISMA 2020, including the flow diagram, forest plots, summary-of-findings tables, and GRADE assessments. Pairs with our hand your systematic review to our team and managed meta-analysis service.
- Clinical study reports and regulatory documents. Structured results narratives and supporting submission documents, written with accurate statistical reporting.
- Review articles. Narrative reviews, mini-reviews, and invited reviews written to journal specifications.
- Case reports and case series. Drafted following the CARE guidelines to maximize clinical and educational value.
This is not ghostwriting. Our involvement is transparently disclosed through co-authorship or acknowledgment, consistent with the authorship and disclosure criteria in the ICMJE Recommendations for the Conduct, Reporting, Editing, and Publication of Scholarly Work in Medical Journals (International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, 2024) and with Good Publication Practice, GPP 2022 (DeTora et al., 2022), and you retain full intellectual ownership.
