PIA is committed to supporting researchers at an early stage of their careers, and to that end we offer additional
guidance and support to those who are relatively unfamiliar with the process of academic publication. In addition, all
research papers and short reports are subjected to peer review, allowing the journal to maintain a high academic
standard and reputation, as well as providing authors with constructive feedback. All of this means that PIA is the ideal
place to start building a record of publications and gain valuable experience. To find out more about the journal, please
