Write a Short Report

ASRT journal short reports contribute to the body of knowledge in your field and are a good way to share your experiences with others. These articles are reviewed by at least one R.T., but do not undergo the full peer-review process. Short reports may be technical or somewhat casual and can include tables, images or other supplemental information. References must be cited in AMA style.
