Editing Support for an Antigen Researcher

I worked with a Japanese antigen researcher to refine an English-language summary of her work. My role was to ensure the text sounded natural, professional, and clearly communicated the purpose of her research to an international audience. The edits helped her feel more confident about presenting her expertise in global research settings.

Original:

There are many kinds of medicine all over the world and they consist of a variety of modalities like small molecule compounds, antibodies, other proteins, nucleic acids, virus vectors and regeneration medicine.

Since each modality has merits and demerits as medicine depends on types of disease and medicament, it is ideal that many kinds of modalities cover many fields of medicine.

Antibodies, which is my specialty field, are promising modality of  medicine with less side effects due to their high specificity to the target like cancer cells.Simply saying, medicine attacks only disease targets but healthy cells.

To develop antibodies as medicine, at first we should find an antibody which binds to a target antigen specifically.

There are many ways to find such antibodies. In my company, we use an antibody generation system of B cells from chicken. B cells are known to generate antibodies in the vertebrate bodies.

Corrections: 

Medicines across the world exist in various modalities, including molecular compounds, antibodies, proteins, nucleic acids, viral vectors, and regenerative therapies. Since each modality has both advantages and disadvantages, depending on type of disease and treatment, it is important that multiple modalities cover a broad range of medical fields.

Antibodies, my area of expertise, are a promising treatment modality because they produce fewer side effects due to their high specificity for disease targets. This kind of medicine attacks only specific disease targets, but not healthy cells. To develop antibodies as medical treatments, we isolate those that bind specifically to a target antigen.

There are many ways to find these antibodies. In my company, we use a system that generates antibodies from chicken-derived B cells. B cells are known to generate antibodies in vertebrate bodies.
