The Journal of the Endocrine Society (JES), Endocrine Society’s first new journal in 30 years — and its first Open Access journal — is preparing for its launch this fall. Leading this new endeavor will be J. Larry Jameson, MD, PhD, executive vice president of the University of Pennsylvania for the Health System and dean of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, as the founding editor-in-chief.
Helping Jameson in his task of making JES successful is a team of associate editors from around the world:

- Jim Fagin, MD, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York
- Ken Ho, MD, Princess Alexandra Hospital, Brisbane, Australia
- Takashi Kadowaki, MD, University of Tokyo, Japan

Topic categories of articles that will be considered for JES are adrenal; diabetes, pancreatic and gastrointestinal hormones; growth, growth hormone, and growth factors; hormone action in cancer; lipids and cardiovascular; nuclear receptors and their ligands; obesity and adipocyte biology; parathyroid, bone, and mineral metabolism; pituitary and neuroendocrinology; reproductive biology and sex-based medicine; signaling pathways; and thyroid. The following cross-cutting terms will be used to further refine the topic categories: aging, autoimmunity and inflammation; bioinformatics; development; endocrine disruptors; genetics and genomics; health disparities; neoplasia; pediatrics; therapeutics; surgery; transcription and gene regulation; and protein regulation and proteomics.
JES will publish perspectives, images, data papers, and mini-reviews as well as research and methods articles.
