From the Editor-In-Chief

Editor-In-Chief The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism New York, New York 10021

	Introduction

Top Introduction

 
This issue of The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism contains a number of invited papers on topics that concern Women’s Health. The Associate Editors of JCE&M and I have assembled these papers in response to a request from Kate Horwitz, President of The Endocrine Society, who has proclaimed that there will be a special focus on Women’s Health at the Annual Meeting of The Endocrine Society this June. The types of papers we solicited for this issue are (1) Commentaries, personal statements by the authors on the chosen topics; (2) Therapeutic Controversies, which assemble short position statements made by experts on a controversial topic; (3) Clinical Reviews, which are short, objective overviews; (4) Extensive Personal Experience papers, which are more anecdotal presentations of long experience in treating an endocrine disorder; (5) Profile of the Endocrine Clinic, which provides an overview of the work of a large endocrine center; and (6) Editorials, which are Commentaries that reflect on Original Studies published in the same issue.

JCE&M plans to have a special focus on Men’s Health in October and on Pediatrics in December. The December issue will be my last as Editor-in-Chief. I hope that our readers have enjoyed the expanded focus on clinical medicine that our Board and the Society have worked toward, and that these special issues will stimulate future research and debate. I am happy to add that no accepted papers were delayed by our publishing these invited contributions, and there is no thought of changing the essential nature of the journal as primarily a publisher of peer-reviewed Original Studies. \.
