The journal offers comprehensive information concerning physiology, pathology, and biotechnology of reproduction. Topical results are currently published in original papers, reviews, and short communications with particular attention to investigations on practicable techniques. Carefully selected reports, e. g. on embryo transfer and associated biotechnologies, gene transfer, and spermatology provide a link between basic research and clinical application. The journal applies to breeders, veterinarians, and biologists, and is also of interest in human medicine. Interdisciplinary cooperation is documented in the proceedings of the joint annual meetings. Fields of interest: Animal reproduction and biotechnology with special regard to investigations on applied and clinical research.
Reproduction, Fertility and Development is an international journal for the publication of original and significant contributions related to scientific aspects of reproduction and development, including biology, physiology, biochemistry, endocrinology, immunology, cell biology, genetics, epigenetics, and behaviour, and the development of reproductive technologies in humans, livestock and wildlife, and in pest management. Contributions may take the form of original research articles, critical reviews, and rapid communications.Research articles should report research that addresses a fundamental question in reproductive biology. Descriptive and methodological studies will be assessed according to this criterion. In general, articles dealing with clinical or veterinary practice or the routine application of reproductive technologies are not considered. Reproduction, Fertility and Development has no page charges, and offers free colour online.
Reproductive Biology is an international, peer-reviewed journal covering all aspects of reproduction in vertebrates. The journal invites original research papers, short communications, review articles and commentaries dealing with reproductive physiology, endocrinology, immunology, molecular and cellular biology, receptor studies, animal breeding as well as andrology, embryology, infertility, assisted reproduction and contraception. Papers from both basic and clinical research will be considered.
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology is ready to receive manuscripts on all aspects of vertebrate reproduction.
Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders is an international journal dedicated to students, clinicians and researchers involved in the broad area of endocrinology and metabolism. This field of medicine and biology is rapidly advancing and a major challenge is to keep abreast of the advances in the field.The mission of this review journal is to keep those interested individuals informed of all the latest exciting advancements that are essential to their research or clinical practice.The format of this review journal differs from existing journals. Each of the quarterly issues covers a specific topic. Ten to twelve articles will be published by world leaders in this area. The individual papers are brief overviews of the latest developments, with insight into the basic aspects of the disease and translation into clinical aspects. Thus the student, academic clinician and practicing clinician will be able to understand the disease process and apply this knowledge to his or her area of interest. Selected readin

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism is the world's leading peer-reviewed journal for endocrine clinical research and cutting edge clinical practice reviews. Each issue provides the latest in-depth coverage of new developments enhancing our understanding, diagnosis and treatment of endocrine and metabolic disorders. Regular features of special interest to endocrine consultants include clinical trials, clinical reviews, clinical practice guidelines, case seminars, and controversies in clinical endocrinology, as well as original reports of the most important advances in patient-oriented endocrine and metabolic research. According to the latest Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Report, JCE&M articles were cited 65,847 times in 2009. Also in 2009, it has an Impact Factor of 6.202 and is ranked 10th out of 105 journals in the category of Endocrinology and Metabolism.
The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is devoted to new experimental and theoretical developments in areas related to steroids. The Journal publishes a variety of contributions, including original articles, general and focused reviews, and rapid communications (brief articles of particular interest and clear novelty). Selected cutting-edge topics will be addressed in Special Issues managed by Guest Editors. Special Issues will contain both commissioned reviews and invited original research to provide comprehensive coverage of specific topics, and all articles will undergo rigorous peer-review prior to publication. The JSBMB publishes experimental work, review articles and letters (commentaries).Manuscripts relating to unsolved issues in genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, structural biology, steroid chemistry, cell biology, molecular medicine, and clinical medicine, are encouraged. Both basic and clinical areas of research are within the scope of the Journal, provided they address mechanisms or yield a functional explanation of processes involving steroids. A further aim of the Journal is to provide steroid-related tools, synthesis and analysis methods, and reference data.Contributions on case studies or descriptions of new compounds should provide new functional data. Otherwise they will be not considered. Reports on translational research are encouraged.The aims of the Journal cover studies on steroid signal transduction pathways, functional annotation of genes and kinetics of metabolic pathways, as well as the creation of enduring and validated resources for metabolomics and systems biology analyses. Furthermore, the Journal also publishes results on lipid research, functional association studies or 'omics' that are instrumental in our understanding of common complex human diseases like metabolic syndrome, diabetes or obesity. Further aspects like steroid-related cancers or neurosteroids are within the scope of the Journal. The Journal aims to enhance our understanding, and the development of approaches to study, the interplay between the environment, genomes, metabolism and disease.Studies that are based on observations performed in a single cell line will not generally be viewed favourably for publication. The experiments should ideally include experiments with comparable cell lines to demonstrate generality or specificity of the effects or mechanisms.US National Institutes of Health (NIH) voluntary posting ("Public Access") policyJournal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and Elsevier facilitate the author's response to the NIH Public Access Policy.

As of January 2000, Developmental Genetics was renamed and relaunched as genesis: The Journal of Genetics and Development, with a new scope and Editorial Board. The journal focuses on work that addresses the genetics of development and the fundamental mechanisms of embryological processes in animals and plants. With increased awareness of the interplay between genetics and evolutionary change, particularly during developmental processes, we encourage submission of manuscripts from all ecological niches. The expanded numbers of genomes for which sequencing is being completed will facilitate genetic and genomic examination of developmental issues, even if the model system does not fit the “classical genetic” mold. Therefore, we encourage submission of manuscripts from all species. Other areas of particular interest include: 1) the roles of epigenetics, microRNAs and environment on developmental processes; 2) genome-wide studies; 3) novel imaging techniques for the study of gene expression and cellular function; 4) comparative genetics and genomics and 5) animal models of human genetic and developmental disorders.genesis presents reviews, full research articles, short research letters, and state-of-the-art technology reports that promote an understanding of the function of genes and the roles they play in complex developmental processes.
