The BSN Announces Journal of Neuroendocrinology Impact Factor Increase

The British Society for Neuroendocrinology (BSN) announced that the Impact Factor of the (JNE) has increased to 4.1, as announced by Clarivate. 

This puts JNE in the top quartile in both Neuroscience and Endocrinology and Metabolism categories. JNE is now ahead of several of the other main journals in this field, including Endocrinology, Journal of Endocrinology, and the Journal of Neuroscience.

attributes this achievement to the outstanding efforts of editors (present and past): Professor Wouter de Herder (Translational and Clinical Editor-in-Chief from 2025), Professor Mike Lehman (Fundamental and Mechanistic Editor-in-Chief from 2024), Professor Julian Mercer (FMN Editor-in-Chief to 2023), and Professor Bob Millar (Translational and Clinical Editor-in-Chief from 2021 to 2024, and responsible for JNE鈥檚 expansion into the clinical and translational field). The efforts of these outstanding scientists, together with their editorial teams, have combined to put JNE into this stellar position in the field.

Brain Health Research Institute (BHRI) director and professor of Biological Sciences at 久久午夜羞羞影院免费观看, Dr. Michael Lehman, has served as the Editor-in-Chief of the Fundamental and Mechanistic Neuroendocrinology (FMN) strand of the since January 2024. Prior to that, Dr. Lehman has served as a Senior Editor of the Journal for almost 10 years and has made numerous contributions to the journal鈥檚 development. He also served as a Guest Editor for a Special Issue of the Journal, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the discovery of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), the master regulator of reproduction in humans and animals.

Dr. Lehman鈥檚 lab investigates the neuronal pathways that control reproductive endocrine function using animal models. They investigate the mechanisms by which distinct cell populations in the hypothalamus control pulsatile and surge secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Dr. Lehman鈥檚 lab has been funded continually by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation, and other federal agencies for over 30 years.

Other members of BHRI involved in the work of the Journal of Neuroendocrinology include Dr. Aleisha Moore as a member of the ECR Editorial Board, and Dr. Richard Piet as a Senior Editor.

Dr. Moore is an assistant professor of Biological Sciences at 久久午夜羞羞影院免费观看, and an assistant director for the neuroimaging collaboratory of the Brain Health Research Institute. 

Her laboratory鈥檚 research aims to define and understand the neuronal network regulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, the final output cells controlling fertility. Her work involves determining whether changes in the regulation of GnRH neurons by a population of cells that co-express the neuropeptides Kisspeptin, Neurokinin B and Dynorphin (KNDy neurons) underlie the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), the most common cause of infertility in individuals with ovaries.

Dr. Piet is an assistant professor of Biological Sciences at 久久午夜羞羞影院免费观看. His current research focuses on understanding the neurophysiological mechanisms involved in regulating the activity of the gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons and, ultimately, fertility in all mammals. He is particularly interested in the afferent control of GnRH neurons by kisspeptin neurons, and in their regulation by circulating gonadal steroid hormones and by circadian clock.
