ESE expands journal portfolio with the launch of  Environmental Endocrinology and Obesity and Endocrinology

Date: 24 September 2024

The European Society of Endocrinology (ESE) is delighted to announce the launch of two new multidisciplinary, open-access journals, Environmental Endocrinology and Obesity and Endocrinology. The Journals will be published by Oxford University Press, with the launch issues scheduled for Q2 2025.  Submissions are now being welcomed via the Journals’ websites.   

Environmental Endocrinology will publish high-quality clinical, translational, and basic research on all aspects of environmental impacts on hormone systems in humans and living systems, incorporating the One Health perspective. The Journal will welcome submissions from a broad range of research disciplines: including epidemiology, climate research, toxicological sciences, endocrinology and developmental biology.

Obesity and Endocrinology is dedicated to advancing and understanding obesity through comprehensive coverage of basic, translational and clinical aspects of endocrinology, both in respect to the complexity of obesity as an endocrine disease, and its biology, diagnostics, treatment and relationship with other endocrine and metabolic diseases. The Journal will also incorporate the interplay between the microbiome and the exposome as well as the sociological, political and global implications of this complex area. 

Jérôme Bertherat, ESE President, said: “We are delighted to expand the Society’s journal portfolio with the launch of Environmental Endocrinology and Obesity and Endocrinology. The global rise in obesity and diabetes, and the prevalence and use in industry of potential endocrine-disrupting chemicals mean there is a need for high-quality research in these topical fields, and we expect the Journals to serve as timely and valuable resources for the scientific community, practitioners, policy makers and the general public.”
