Excellent news! 🥳 Another reason for those in the Neuroendocrine field to submit their work to @JNE-editor.bluesky.social, if supporting a society owned journal that actually gives back to the community wasn’t enough motivation already!

Journal of Neuroendocrinology @jne-editor.bsky.social · Jun 18

Had to turn the emergency alert thing off on my phone after receiving my 3rd blaring siren red alert at 1am, only for my partner to receive another at 4am!! We get it, there’s a storm but are multiple repeat sirens in the middle of the night really necessary?! #StormEowyn
