The Society for Endocrinology
The Society for Endocrinology was set up in 1946 to promote the advance of endocrinology. The Society currently has about 1900 members and is increasing its size and range of activities rapidly. Membership is open to anyone anywhere in the world working in an endocrine-related field, at any stage of their career.
The Society's aims are:
- To advance scientific and clinical education and research in endocrinology for the public benefit.
- To educate and inform the public on all aspects of endocrinology.
- To attract good young scientists, doctors and nurses into endocrinology and to retain them in the discipline, in order to improve science and medicine for the public benefit.
- To raise the profile and be the voice of endocrinology in the UK.
- To promote and support endocrinology worldwide and to foster a sense of community, including working in collaboration with other international organisations.
The Society has a number of Special Interest Groups that focus on specific aspects of endocrinology; a Young Endocrinologists group that supports the interests of younger endocrinologists in the early part of their career; and an Endocrine Nurses focus group.
