Biology of Sex Differences is a unique scientific journal that incorporates basic and clinical research focusing on sex differences in physiology, behavior, and disease, from molecules to phenotypes. The goal of the journal is to improve understanding of basic principles mediating sex differences and foster development of therapeutic and diagnostic tools that are specific for each sex/phenotype. This open access journal is the highly respected official journal of the Organization for the Study of Sex Differences, and is co-published by the Society for Women’s Health Research.
