Formerly Canadian Medical Publishing
About Merit Group
Merit Group is the new name of Canadian Medical Publishing (CMP). The team, the services and the standards are unchanged; only the name is new.
We help researchers and clinicians publish with precision, integrity and confidence, supported by a network of professionals in medical writing, research design, publishing, journalology, health research methodology and publication ethics.
Who supervises the work
An editor’s eye on every project.
All projects are supervised by a PhD-trained health research methodologist and former journal editor-in-chief, backed by decades of collective experience in academic publishing, peer review and evidence synthesis.
Team members bring backgrounds that include membership of international bodies such as COPE, ICMJE and WAME, so the advice you get reflects how journals actually make decisions.
Our approach
Great science deserves to be communicated clearly, accurately and ethically.
- Methodological rigour
- Your research meets the highest scientific and reporting standards.
- Clear communication
- Your findings are presented precisely, concisely and for the readers you need to reach.
- Ethical integrity
- Your work follows international publication ethics guidance (COPE, ICMJE), which builds trust with editors and readers.
Authorship
Authors stay authors.
We don’t ghostwrite. We work from your data and involve you at every stage of the manuscript, so you meet the ICMJE’s criteria for authorship. Every engagement is confidential.
Who we work with
From a first manuscript to a multi-country project.
- Individual researchers, clinicians and graduate students
- Universities and research institutes
- Journals and publishers
- Research organisations running several studies at once
Based in the Greater Toronto Area, Canada, and working remotely with authors across Canada, Asia, Europe and the Middle East and North Africa. See our services.
