About Louai
Turning research into documents your team, your institution, or your investors can actually use.
If you're a biotech or HealthTech R&D team, a research institute, or an academic group that needs strong scientific writing or research coordination — but doesn't have the in-house bandwidth — that's exactly the gap I fill.
I'm an MD-PhD with years of hands-on experience inside hospital and academic research settings: designing studies, coordinating translational research projects, and writing the documents that make science legible to the people who need to act on it — manuscripts, literature reviews, grant applications, research reports.
What I deliver:
Scientific & Medical Writing — literature reviews, manuscript drafting and editing, grant applications, research reports, and scientific summaries for non-specialist stakeholders.
Research Project Coordination — managing timelines, cross-functional academic/clinical stakeholders, and ethics submissions for translational and applied research projects.
Scientific Communication Support — turning complex research into content that investors, institutional leadership, or interdisciplinary teams can actually use.
I work in English, French, and Arabic, and I hold the same standard I applied in hospital and academic research: rigorous, well-sourced, and built to withstand scrutiny.
Have a manuscript that needs expert eyes, a research project that needs coordination, or scientific content that needs to be both accurate and readable? Let's talk.
