Scientific & Medical Writer · Academic Support · Research Coordination · Kerala, India
I am Dr. Binitha Purushothaman — an independent scientific and medical writer and academic support specialist based in Kerala, India. I hold a PhD in Biochemistry and over the past 12+ years, I have worked at the intersection of research, writing, and education, where science meets clarity, and knowledge meets communication.
I started my writing practice because I kept seeing the same problem: brilliant researchers with valuable findings who could not get published — not because their science was weak, but because their writing did not do it justice. Journals reject papers for language, structure, and presentation, not just for methodology. That gap — between good science and published science — is exactly what I built this practice to close.
My journey began in the laboratory and the lecture hall. Over time it expanded into something broader and more purposeful: helping researchers get published, helping students truly understand their subject, and helping clinicians translate their clinical observations into credible, peer-reviewed scientific literature.
Today, my work spans three deeply connected areas: Scientific & Medical Writing — crafting publication-ready manuscripts targeting SCOPUS, PubMed, Web of Science (SCIE), DOAJ, and Embase indexed journals; Academic Support in Biochemistry — personalised, one-on-one guidance for undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD students; and Research Advice & Coordination — supporting researchers from study design through to final submission and publication.
Biochemistry is not just my qualification. It is my foundation. It connects the molecular to the clinical, the laboratory to the patient, the raw data to the discovery. That depth of understanding is what I bring to every manuscript I write, every paper I edit, and every student I support.
No agencies. No subcontracting. No shortcuts. Just one expert — fully invested in your work.
Based in Kerala, India. Serving researchers and students across India and worldwide.
A selection of peer-reviewed publications I have supported — proof that I understand what getting published requires.
I run a solo practice because I believe the person you speak to should be the person doing the work. No handoffs. No surprises. Just consistent, expert attention — led entirely by me.
