Instructions for Authors
General Information
Hormones – International Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism is an international peer reviewed journal. This journal follows a single-blind reviewing procedure.
The English language in submitted articles must be clear, correct, and unambiguous. The use of clear and concise language will help editors and reviewers concentrate on the scientific content of your paper and thus expedite the peer review process. We may reject papers that do not meet these standards.
Accepted manuscripts are copyedited for formal and linguistic style, anyway if you are not a native English, this may be not enough.
Electronic submission is mandatory and substantially reduces editorial processing and shortens reviewing and overall publication times.
Further Editorial assistance may be available from the editorial offices:
