Also included is work addressing neuroendocrine-behavior relationships, neuroendocrine and endocrine mechanisms controlling the development or adult expression of behavior as well as studies of the environmental control and evolutionary significance of hormone-brain-behavior relationships. Studies with an emphasis on molecular, neuroanatomical, or non-neural systems are also welcome when relevant to endocrine signaling and behavior.
