Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on physiological processes, including mammary gland function and dysfunction related to obesity, the role of the renin-angiotensin system in lung injury and hypertension, and immune system interactions in preeclampsia and cardiovascular risk. It also covers pedagogical approaches in physiology education, such as game-based learning and capstone experiences, and explores sex-based differences in the efficacy and tolerability of glucose-lowering therapies and their impact on cardiovascular health.
