I’m a Boomer who got a degree & got in-house jobs — #journalist, then #editor in #publishing — & then went full-time #freelance as a #MedicalEditor in 1995. Now #GenAI & this are making my professional life difficult: www.science.org/content/arti....
@linkedin.com, you big silly! Though my #LinkedIn profile makes it clear that I’m a #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor, you give me info on companies seeking a *medical doctor*. Your #algorithm doesn’t get it that “medical editor” *does not* necessarily mean “physician.” Please write a wiser algorithm!
And because your #MedicalEditor is vacationing, she forgot to put an “r” at the end of the first word of her preceding post. 😉

You #MedicalEditor is on #vacation in a cabin in gorgeous #Vermont with some family members and did *not* bring a computer or #manuscripts to #edit❣️
As a #MedicalEditor, I must point out that it is #blaming #patients to say that *they* failed *therapies*. It is actually the case instead that the *therapies* failed the *patients*.
I'm going to have to put #MedComms Day on my calendar for next year. I forgot that today is MedComms Day 2025! www.ismpp.org/medcommsday
If you're a #MedicalEditor or #MedicalWriter, you'll want to learn more about the annual celebration.
This longtime #MedicalEditor is so angry on behalf of the #physician-#researchers whose papers she #edits for #publication!
#LinkedIn, you just don't get me, do you? If you'd use the services of humans instead of #AI, you'd send me emails about job ops and #freelancing ops I'm qualified for. I'm an experienced #SelfEmployed #MedicalEditor, not a dentist, a CEO, or a mystery shopper. www.linkedin.com/posts/kokedi... 🙄
Current (2025) #profession-related data on me, your #MedicalEditor: 41 years in publishing, 30 of them in #medical #publishing; #self-employed full time since 1995.

Way cool to fight #health #misinformation! #MedicalEditor
I love it when the brains of the #author group, the #project #managers, and me all click on how to fix a #medical #manuscript issue. What a big serotonin hit! #MedicalEditor

Your favorite #MedicalEditor in her office. And yes, that's a comfortable #gaming #chair she's sitting in. A person working at a desk has to take care of her back. #AmEditing
Your favorite medical editor, Katharine O'Moore-Klopf, is sitting in her office chair. She has silver hair and wears eyeglasses.

I love this letter that a fellow #MedicalEditor had #ArtificialIntelligence write: an angry, strongly worded Shakespearean letter to the editorial board of a #MedicalJournal that has been slow in getting a #manuscript through #PeerReview. https://tinyurl.com/54wnheap 😉 #AmEditing

Here I am at age 65, still #physician #researchers’ favorite #MedicalEditor, still wearing #politics on my shirt & silver stubble on my postmenopausal unshaven chin & jaw, still sharing all the #editing #news, & still enjoying the hell out of editing. #AmEditing
I'm so enjoying my current #work #project. As a #MedicalEditor, I was asked to #edit #PatientEducation material to make it easy to understand by non–health-care pros. I'm making #health knowledge #accessible & removing some stress for parents whose children need medical care.🫂💕
