John Wiley & Sons and the Teratology Society are pleased to announce a new journal, Birth Defects Research . This new journal is a comprehensive resource of original research and reviews in fields related to embryo-fetal development and reproduction. Birth Defects Research draws from the expertise and reputation of two current Wiley journals, and introduces a new forum for reviews in developmental biology and embryology. The new journal consists of three parts:

The first journal to focus on the fetus as a patient, Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy provides a wide range of biomedical specialists with a single source of reports encompassing the common discipline of fetal medicine. The journal includes peer-reviewed original research papers, spanning from basic and pathophysiological investigations to clinical studies in fetal diagnosis and therapy. In addition, the journal addresses timely topics of wide interest in a section dedicated to reviews and mini-reviews, where specific clinical questions are covered by internationally renowned experts. Finally, two sections, “Novel Insights in Fetal Medicine” and “Images in Fetal Medicine”, are dedicated to particularly interesting case reports with a special focus on cases documented by means of multimodal imaging.

The Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology was founded in 1901 by Giulio Chiarugi, Anatomist at Florence University, and hence ever devoted to the progress and diffusion of science in the fields of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology. The Journal will continue to be devoted to publish original, research or review papers dealing with the entire field of anatomy and embryology of vertebrates, from clinical anatomy to cell and developmental biology, with special regard to human and veterinary medicine and including medical education in those fields.

Mechanisms of Development is the Official Journal of The International Society of Developmental Biologists which supports the world-wide community of developmental biologists.Mechanisms of Development is an international journal whose purpose is to communicate contemporary studies in developmental biology in any system, including animals, plants and other models. These studies can focus on embryogenesis and/or post-embryonic development of tissues and organs. In addition, MOD publishes studies in which in vitro approaches are used to study mechanisms relevant to developmental biology; for example cell culture assays to study stem cell properties or basic cell biological mechanisms. Areas of particular interest include:Regulation of stem cell and progenitor maintenance, cell differentiation, and pattern formation.The developmental control of cell proliferation and death, and of tissue growth and size.Mechanisms of cell and tissue morphogenesis, including migration, shape and polarity, and the roles of physical forces in development.Evolution of developmental mechanisms.Studies can focus on molecular and/or cellular mechanisms, and we also welcome studies using modelling approaches that are firmly rooted in experimental data.The Editors are strongly committed to fair, transparent and rapid review. The criteria for publication are: (1) That the study is novel, interesting, and advances understanding of a developmental mechanism(s); (2) That the conclusions of the study are supported by the data. We ask reviewers not to request further experiments unless these are essential to support the principal conclusions. Reviewers will provide constructive comments to enable any improvements required to make the work suitable for publication. We normally allow only one round of significant revision.Mechanisms of Development does not publish descriptive studies of gene expression patterns and molecular screens; for submission of such studies see Gene Expression Patterns

MHR publishes articles on the molecular aspects of human reproductive physiology and pathology, endocrinology, andrology,gonadal function, gametogenesis, fertilization, embryo development, implantation, pregnancy and contraception. Reproductive genetics is also an important part of MHR. Studies on animal models are welcome as long as a clear relevance to human reproduction can be shown. Published papers include peer-reviewed original research reports, short review articles and commentaries. MHR is published on behalf of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology.

Organogenesis is a peer-reviewed journal, available in print and online, that publishes significant advances on all aspects of organ development. The journal covers organogenesis in all multi-cellular organisms and also include research into tissue engineering, artificial organs and organ substitutes.The overriding criteria for publication in Organogenesis are originality, scientific merit and general interest. The audience of the journal consists primarily of researchers and advanced students of anatomy, developmental biology and tissue engineering.The emphasis of the journal is on experimental papers (full-length and brief communications), but it will also publish reviews, hypotheses and commentaries. The Editors encourage the submission of addenda, which are essentially auto-commentaries on significant research recently published elsewhere with additional insights, new interpretations or speculations on a relevant topic. If you have interesting data or an original hypothesis about organ development or artificial organs, please send a pre-submission inquiry to the Editor-in-Chief. You will normally receive a reply within days. All manuscripts will be subjected to peer review, and accepted manuscripts will be posted to the electronic site of the journal immediately and will appear in print at the earliest opportunity thereafter.Advertisements.

Regenerative Medicine provides a forum to address the important challenges and advances in stem cell research and regenerative medicine, delivering this essential information in concise, clear and attractive article formats – vital to an increasingly time-constrained community.

Reproduction publishes Research Highlights, reporting major discoveries and advances, original research articles and topical reviews on the subject of reproductive biology. Its focus is on cellular and molecular biology of reproduction, including the development of gametes and early embryos in all animal species including the human; developmental processes such as cell differentiation, morphogenesis and related regulatory mechanisms in normal and disease models; assisted reproductive technologies in model systems and in a clinical environment2 reproductive endocrinology; reproductive immunology; and reproductive physiology. Emerging topics including cloning, the biology of embryonic stem cells, environmental effects on reproductive potential and health (e.g. obesity), and epigenetic effects on reproductive and developmental processes are encouraged.

Recent discoveries in experimental and clinical research have led to impressive advances in our knowledge of the genetic and environmental mechanisms governing sex determination and differentiation, their evolution as well as the mutations or endocrine and metabolic abnormalities that interfere with normal gonadal development. Sexual Development provides a unique forum for this rapidly expanding field. Its broad scope covers all aspects of genetics, molecular biology, embryology, endocrinology, evolution, and pathology of sex determination and differentiation in humans and animals. It publishes high-quality original research manuscripts, review articles, short reports, case reports, and commentaries. An internationally renowned and multidisciplinary editorial team of 3 chief editors, 10 prominent scientists serving as section editors, and a distinguished panel of editorial board members ensures fast and author-friendly editorial processing and peer reviewing.

Ecology and Society is an electronic, peer-reviewed, multi-disciplinary journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research.
