The process of obtaining results must be ethically sound.
Fields covered:
- Adaptation and environment
- Autonomic nervous function
- Biophysics
- Cell sensors and signaling
- Central nervous system and brain sciences
- Endocrinology and metabolism
- Excitable membranes and neural cell physiology
- Exercise physiology
- Gastrointestinal and kidney physiology
- Heart and circulatory physiology
