Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology Volume 72

Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology (FIN) is a publication that features a wide range of articles, including comprehensive review articles, systematic reviews, opinion pieces, and meta-analyses. While many of the reviews are solicited, the journal also welcomes unsolicited reviews, meta-analyses, and proposals for thematic special issues, provided they meet the high-quality standards set by the journal. Additionally, FIN encourages authors to submit proposals for commentaries that succinctly introduce new ideas or offer further analysis to explore the implications of articles previously published in the journal.

The research areas of interest covered by Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology include:

1. Endocrine Interactions and Neuropsychiatric/Neurodegenerative Disease: Exploring how endocrine factors influence neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions.
2. Sex Differences: Investigating sex differences in clinical populations and pre-clinical models.
3. Stress and Health: Examining the interactions between stress and the body’s stress systems with a focus on health and disease.
4. Neuroendocrine Influences Across the Lifespan: Covering the impact of neuroendocrine factors on health and well-being from developmental stages, puberty, adulthood, through to aging.
5. Microbiota and Neuroendocrine Interactions: Investigating how interactions between the microbiota and the neuroendocrine system affect health and disease.
6. Neuroendocrine-Immune Interactions: Studying the connections between the neuroendocrine system, the immune system, and their links to behavior and health conditions.
7. Hormonally Active Neuropeptides: Delving into the cellular, molecular, and behavioral aspects of neuropeptides that play a role in hormone regulation.
8. Comparative and Clinical Neuroendocrinology: Addressing issues related to neuroendocrine function in both clinical and comparative contexts.
9. Neuroendocrine Control of Energy Balance, Glucose Homeostasis, and Metabolism: Investigating the regulation of these critical physiological processes by the neuroendocrine system.

Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology serves as a platform for the discussion and exploration of these areas. It welcomes high-quality contributions that advance the understanding of neuroendocrinology, offering valuable insights for researchers and clinicians.
