Independent scholarship.
Open to everyone.

IAGS as the Society · JIAG as the journal

The Independent Aesthetic Governance Society supports scholarly exchange about independent decisions, patient safety and accountable institutions. The Journal of Independent Aesthetic Governance at AMA Press publishes articles in this field. Contact the journal’s editorial office about a contribution.

Independent editorial decisions

The Society can propose topics and discuss contributions. The journal’s editors oversee review and decide acceptance. Membership does not confer a right to publication. Work by Society officers is assigned to an editor without a relevant conflict.

The authoritative publication

The final scholarly record remains on its permanent article page at AMA Press. IAGS links to that publication. Society manuscripts, preprints and statements do not thereby become peer-reviewed journal articles.
