Newsroom
Endocrinologists are at the core of solving the most pressing health problems of our time, from diabetes and obesity to infertility, bone health, and hormone-related cancers. The Endocrine Society is the world’s oldest and largest organization of scientists devoted to hormone research and physicians who care for people with hormone-related conditions.
The Society, which celebrated its centennial year in 2016, has more than 18,000 members in 122 countries. Building on our rich tradition and the historic breakthroughs made by our 10 Nobel Prize-winning members, our current members are at the forefront of scientific innovation and leaders in providing high quality patient care.
Our experts are available to discuss diabetes, thyroid, menopause, reproduction, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, osteoporosis, obesity, and other hormone health topics. We also conduct outreach on behalf of the Hormone Health Network, the Society's public education arm. Please contact media@endocrine.org to set up an interview with one of our experts.
Our four peer-reviewed journals highlight major trends and research in endocrinology and advance scientific discoveries to improve human health worldwide. Credentialed journalists can register to receive embargoed press releases on the latest research.
