Comprehensive descriptions of more than 200 hormones, neurotransmitters, growth factors, and related regulators include information on the chemical structures and the pathways for their biosynthesis, sequestration, release, and degradation, as well as on physiological functions, mechanisms of action, receptor subtypes, response elements, agonists and antagonists, feedback controls, diseases resulting from dysfunctions, and the actions and side-effects of therapeutic agents. With information drawn from the most up-to-date sources, the dictionary not only emphasizes human endocrinology, but offers observations of other vertebrates, invertebrates, unicellular eukaryotes, prokaryotes and non-living in vitro systems.

Between 1951-1953, Martin was a senior investigator at Creedmoor Institute of Biological Studies in Queens, New York City. In 1954, Constance was appointed an instructor at New York Medical College in New York City, where she remained until 1955. During the period from 1956 till 1957, Martin served as an assistant professor of physiology and pharmacology at the same educational establishment.
In 1959, Constance was appointed an associate professor of biology at Long Island University in Brooklyn, a post she held for the next four years. During the period from 1963-1964, Martin worked as an assistant professor of physiology at Hunter College, that is one of the constituent colleges of the City University of New York. In 1965, she was promoted to the post of an associate professor of the same educational establishment, a post she held till 1974.
In 1975-1991, Constance served as a professor of biological sciences at Hunter College. In 1991, she was appointed a coordinator of anatomy and physiology program at the same college. Moreover, it was in 1991, that she retired from university teaching career. Three years later, in 1994, Martin began working as a Dorland’s Medical Dictionary consultant.
During her lifetime, Constance also taught at the Graduate Center in New York City, where she presented her endocrinology lectures for both graduate and undergraduate students, in addition to acting as a mentor for five Ph.D. candidates.
At the request of the Endocrine Society, to which she belongs, Martin created "A Glossary of Terms Used in Endocrinology" in 1986. She expanded this greatly and added vocabulary from related disciplines, as well as formulae, acronyms and suggestions for standard usage.
Constance R. Martin gained prominence for her pioneering contributions to the literature of endocrinology. Her groundbreaking work is "A Textbook of Endocrine Physiology" (1975). Another important works are "Endocrine Physiology" (1985) and "Dictionary of Endocrinology and Related Biomedical Sciences" (1995).

1985Constance is a member of many organizations, associations and clubs, including American Physiological Society, American Society for Bone and Mineral Research, New York Academy of Sciences, American Association for the Advancement of Science and Sigma Xi. Moreover, she served as a chair of Education Committee of the Endocrine Society for four years.
Constance married Michael A. Martin on October 5, 1943. Their marriage produced two children — April Carol and Brenda Joy Trammell. In 1965, the couple divorced. Later, on September 3, 1971, Constance married Henning R. Norbom.
