Physiology
Overview
Physiology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on the study of the functions and mechanisms of living organisms. It publishes original research articles, reviews, and perspectives covering a wide range of topics in physiology, including cellular and molecular physiology, systems physiology, and integrative physiology. The journal aims to advance our understanding of how organisms function at various levels, from the molecular to the whole organism, and its findings have implications for human health and disease.
