Research correspondence
Questions about active research programmes, methods, evidence or interpretation are welcome where they can be addressed constructively and within the available research record.
Contact
Start with the research question.
IAI welcomes serious research correspondence, peer-review enquiries and collaboration discussions where there is a clear relationship to the Institute's work.
Research correspondence
Public contact channel
Address pending public admission
A public Institute email address has not yet been admitted to the website. The contact route is therefore being formed before the external mailbox/domain binding is finalised.
Once the Institute's public domain and correspondence address are formally established, they will be published here without changing the contact model.
Appropriate enquiries
What this channel is for
The Institute is small and research-focused, so correspondence is most useful when the question, paper or proposed collaboration is identified clearly.
-
01 -
02 Peer review
Requests to review draft papers, methods or research claims may be considered where the request is sufficiently specific and the relevant material can be shared responsibly.
-
03 Collaboration
Potential research collaborations are considered when there is a clear scientific question, methodological fit and a practical basis for shared work.
-
04 Publication enquiries
Questions about publication status, versions, citation or public supporting material may be directed through the research correspondence channel.
Boundaries
A research contact channel, not a general inbox.
- 01
IAI is not a commercial AI consultancy or software-support provider.
- 02
The Institute does not offer a general-purpose help desk for third-party AI products.
- 03
Unsolicited sales, recruitment and marketing approaches are outside the research-contact scope.
- 04
Sensitive research material should not be sent until an appropriate exchange method has been agreed.
Correspondence practice
Specific questions are easier to answer well.
Where possible, identify the relevant research area, publication, method or claim and explain what you are asking for. This helps preserve the distinction between scholarly correspondence and general commentary.
