The Journal of Promotion Management will keep you up-to-date on applied research and planning in promotion management. It is designed for practitioners in advertising, public relations, and personal selling, as well as academicians, researchers, and teachers in these areas.Every year, businesses in the United States budget approximately two-thirds of all marketing money into consumer and trade promotions designed to push products through the distribution chain. Any successful brand marketing plan relies on promotion, whether to stimulate immediate sales or ensure continued commerce. No modern marketing curriculum can be complete without a comprehensive review of the up-to-date ideas, information, and industry trends that advertising, public relations, and sales and marketing professionals need to stay ahead of their competition. The Journal of Promotion Management is essential for keeping faculty and professionals updated on the issues and information they need.Each issue of the Journal of Promotion Management includes research papers, case studies, commentaries, and book reviews--all from leading practitioners and academics. Contributors integrate historical ideas and theoretical concerns into contemporary perspectives, providing the kind of practical information that will give your students the edge in this highly competitive field. And the journal is one of the few sources for material on non-mass media promotional topics, including specialty advertising and sales promotion.Features of the Journal of Promotion Management include: empirical papers with management implications case studies that clearly discuss the relevance of the case to other practitioners and academicians commentaries on cutting-edge concepts in promotion management from leading academicians and practitioners 8220;Industry Trends" columns that note recent or notable events affecting promotion management book reviews, with each book reviewed by both an academician and a practitioner Topics covered in the Journal of Promotion Management have included: celebrity branding in sports marketing Internet vs. traditional advertising promotional strategies in the film industry developing a Yellow Pages media unit corporate sponsorship marketing direct-to-consumer prescription drugs Promotion marketing creates a powerful interaction when added to an overall marketing program. The Journal of Promotion Management is an essential resource for students, educators, and professionals in understanding the concepts and trends of promotion management.Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by two anonymous referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is devoted to new experimental and theoretical developments in areas related to steroids. The Journal publishes a variety of contributions, including original articles, general and focused reviews, and rapid communications (brief articles of particular interest and clear novelty). Selected cutting-edge topics will be addressed in Special Issues managed by Guest Editors. Special Issues will contain both commissioned reviews and invited original research to provide comprehensive coverage of specific topics, and all articles will undergo rigorous peer-review prior to publication. The JSBMB publishes experimental work, review articles and letters (commentaries).Manuscripts relating to unsolved issues in genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, structural biology, steroid chemistry, cell biology, molecular medicine, and clinical medicine, are encouraged. Both basic and clinical areas of research are within the scope of the Journal, provided they address mechanisms or yield a functional explanation of processes involving steroids. A further aim of the Journal is to provide steroid-related tools, synthesis and analysis methods, and reference data.Contributions on case studies or descriptions of new compounds should provide new functional data. Otherwise they will be not considered. Reports on translational research are encouraged.The aims of the Journal cover studies on steroid signal transduction pathways, functional annotation of genes and kinetics of metabolic pathways, as well as the creation of enduring and validated resources for metabolomics and systems biology analyses. Furthermore, the Journal also publishes results on lipid research, functional association studies or 'omics' that are instrumental in our understanding of common complex human diseases like metabolic syndrome, diabetes or obesity. Further aspects like steroid-related cancers or neurosteroids are within the scope of the Journal. The Journal aims to enhance our understanding, and the development of approaches to study, the interplay between the environment, genomes, metabolism and disease.Studies that are based on observations performed in a single cell line will not generally be viewed favourably for publication. The experiments should ideally include experiments with comparable cell lines to demonstrate generality or specificity of the effects or mechanisms.US National Institutes of Health (NIH) voluntary posting ("Public Access") policyJournal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and Elsevier facilitate the author's response to the NIH Public Access Policy.
