A word from the Editor
/endocrinologist/120-summer16/a-word-from-the-editor/a-word-from-the-editor/
Sport is not always associated with the top end of the endocrine business. Be it lurid tabloid guessing games of ‘Is she a he?’, state-sponsored oral Turinabol administration in 1970s East Germany or the polypharmacy of sociopathic cyclists, hormones seem inevitably to feature for all the wrong reasons.

Journal of Endocrinology
/publications/journal-items/journal-of-endocrinology/
Journal of Endocrinology is the Society's flagship journal that publishes original research articles, reviews and science guidelines. Its focus is on endocrine physiology and metabolism, including hormone secretion; hormone action; biological effects. The journal publishes basic and translational studies at the organ, tissue and whole organism level. Alongside the core endocrinology topics, the journal also encourages submissions on cardiovascular, muscle and renal endocrinology as well as submissions on the immune system where this impacts the endocrine system
