Australia stands with the courageous people of Iran and condemns the Iranian regime’s brutal crackdown.

We continue to advise Australians not to travel to Iran. If you're in Iran, leave if it is safe to do so.

2 papers rejected in 5 months. 1 from 2 finance journals, 1 from 3 IS journals. Only 1 IS journal provided a complete, helpful review package. How unfortunate to face rejections from elite journals during my job market year. The struggle is real, but so is the learning. #PhDLife
