General and Comparative Endocrinology (GCE)
Journal Descriptions
General and Comparative Endocrinology is a long-established scholarly journal that has published cutting-edge research in endocrine science for more than six decades. Since its launch in 1961, the journal has focused on increasing our understanding of how endocrine systems operate across a wide range of animal species, from invertebrates to vertebrates. Unlike clinical endocrinology journals, this title emphasizes comparative and fundamental endocrine biology, including hormonal control of physiology, development, reproduction, metabolism, and behavior. Researchers use the journal to report advances in topics such as hormone-gene interactions, endocrine influence on neural and reproductive systems, growth factor signaling, environmental and ecological impacts on endocrine functions, and the molecular evolution of hormones and receptors. This multidisciplinary coverage makes it valuable to endocrinologists, physiologists, evolutionary biologists, and zoologists interested in both basic and mechanistic insights. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles, and methodological studies that expand both conceptual and experimental frameworks in endocrinology. Its frequent issue schedule ensures rapid dissemination of findings to the scientific community. Due to its broad comparative focus, General and Comparative Endocrinology serves as a bridge between traditional endocrinology and modern integrative biological research.
