In November 2015, Nature Reviews Endocrinology (originally published as Nature Clinical Practice Endocrinology & Metabolism) celebrates 10 years since the launch of the journal. To mark this occasion, we present a special Anniversary issue. A series of Decade in Review articles summarize the major advances across the field of endocrinology in the past decade. We also present a Viewpoint article in which several of our Advisory Board Members reflect on the challenges and progress of the past decade and look forward to what can be expected in the next decade. A second Viewpoint article discusses the new hormones and new roles for well-known hormones and endocrine organs that have been discovered in the past decade. Finally, a special infographic provides a snapshot of 10 years of the journal in numbers.

Here, five of our Advisory Board Members look back at the past decade of endocrinology research, highlighting key advances and identifying roadblocks. They also discuss where effort and money should be invested now and speculate on where progress might be made in the coming decade.
Viewpoint
The past 10 years—new hormones, new functions, new endocrine organs

In this Viewpoint, six members of our Advisory Board comment on advances in the past 10 years that have revealed new hormones, new functions for known hormones and endocrine organs and new endocrine roles for well-known organs. The authors discuss how bone was recognized as an endocrine organ, the emerging understanding of the importance of gut hormones, targeting ectopic adipose tissue and the pathogenesis and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
