The society exists to promote research into the interplay between
the endocrine and nervous systems that control so many important body
processes. The ultimate aim of this research is to provide therapies
for the many neuroendocrine diseases and disorders, and to bring
forward methods to beneficially regulate normal neuroendocrine function
in man and animals.
The society was founded as the British
Neuroendocrine Group in 1985 and changed its name to the British
Society for Neuroendocrinology with effect from May 2001.
The BSN publishes the international 'Journal of Neuroendocrinology' and organises regular meetings and symposia.
BSN sponsors teaching of Biosciences
 The BSN is pleased to announce that it has agreed to act as a Principal Sponsor for the 'Practical Biology' website . This new website provides all teachers of biology with a wide range of experiments to illustrate concepts or processes, as starting points for practical investigation.
It also enables the sharing of skills and experience of making experiments work in the classroom. This initiative reflects the Society's commitment to the promotion of education in the biosciences and in neuroendocrinology in particular.
