Journal Title：Sexual Development

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 three chief editors, ten prominent scientists serving as section editors, and a distinguished panel of editorial board members ensures fast and author-friendly editorial processing and peer reviewing.

實驗和臨床研究的最新發現使我們對控制性別決定和分化的遺傳和環境機制、其進化以及干擾正常性腺發育的突變或內分泌和代謝異常的認識取得了令人矚目的進展。《性發育》為這個迅速發展的領域提供了一個獨特的論壇。其廣泛的范圍涵蓋了人類和動物性別決定和分化的遺傳學、分子生物學、胚胎學、內分泌學、進化和病理學的各個方面。它出版高質量的原創研究手稿、評論文章、短篇報告、病例報告和評論。一個由三位主編、十位擔任部門編輯的杰出科學家和一個杰出的編輯委員會成員組成的國際知名多學科編輯團隊確保快速且對作者友好的編輯處理和同行評審。

Sexual Development創刊于2007年，由S. Karger AG出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 發育生物學全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數2.4，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
