Type Book

Rate 0.0 /5

Function and disease of the pituitary gland have long been at the center of research interest. Based on a recent meeting held at Iguazu Falls, Argentina, this volume of Frontiers of Hormone Research highlights scientifically exciting and clinically relevant areas in this fast-developing field. Renowned specialists and experts from Latin and North America, Europe and Australia discuss in their contributions various aspects of tumorigenesis, prolactinomas, hormone regulation and action, growth ho…
