Neuroendocrinology: clinical and experimental.
There have been several important publications concerning the aetiology of human pituitary tumours, in particular, delineating some of the gene mutations which may underlie this clinical problem. There have not been any major developments in clinical neuroendocrinology although advances have been made in the pharmacological development of dopaminergic drugs and the diagnosis of Cushing's disease.
