Thus, every piece undergoes a rigorous human review process to ensure accuracy and adherence to our high editorial standards. Additionally, we manually verify reference links and their content to guarantee the reliability of the information we provide. At Grants for Medical, AI’s role is precisely defined and includes:

  • Generating recommendations for the general outline of the topic.
  • Enhancing grammatical structure for clarity and precision.

This approach ensures that AI serves as an assistant to our content’s readability and grammatical integrity rather than as the creator.

We place a high value on authenticity and credibility in our content creation process. To uphold these values, we ensure that every author joining our team possesses the necessary experience and deep expertise in their respective fields. Our authors are recognized subject matter experts driven by a commitment to contribute meaningfully to their areas of expertise. Despite leveraging advanced tools and manual procedures to monitor AI usage, we acknowledge the limitations of these technologies in detecting AI involvement with absolute certainty. Therefore, we employ a comprehensive strategy to manage AI usage effectively:

  • Monitoring for consistency and authenticity in each writer’s style.
