Awardees will be recognized for their achievements at the American Physiology Summit, APS’ flagship annual meeting, to be held April 24–27, 2025, in Baltimore.
Using cannabis products during pregnancy may negatively affect offspring lung development and function, according to new research.
Short activity breaks throughout the day together with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) every other day can counteract negative changes in heart health associated with a sedentary lifestyle.
Nobel Laureate James Rothman, PhD; Holly A. Ingraham, PhD, FASEB’s 2024 Lifetime Achievement awardee; and George A. Brooks, PhD, FAPS, the American Physiological Society’s (APS) 2025 Walter Cannon Award recipient, are among the highlighted speakers who will attend the American Physiology Summit. The Summit, APS’ flagship annual meeting, will be held April 24–27 in Baltimore.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is proud to announce the successful implementation of Subscribe to Open (S2O), achieving its goal of making 10 of its primary research journals fully open access in 2025 through S2O.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is pleased to announce its leadership election results for 2025–2026.
Body position can affect the accuracy of vital sign measurements that indicate arterial stiffness—a risk factor for heart disease—according to new research. Sitting down during certain tests may cause a spike in arterial stiffness readings that does not reflect a true increase.
Study from the American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular is the first to examine parallel lung and placental changes in response to prenatal steroids.
New research reveals significant differences in gene expression related to metabolism, inflammation and cardioprotection in the fat tissue of lean and obese mice. These findings could advance the development of targeted therapies for different types of adipose tissue, addressing critical health concerns.
Females may begin to recover twice as fast as males when it comes to muscle injuries, according to a new study in mice. The findings support the idea of forming individualized treatment plans based on a person’s biological sex. The research will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20–22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
Soaking in a hot tub may be preferable to an icy cold bath after exercise if the goal is to maintain optimum performance, according to a new study. This is especially true for those competing in back-to-back races in a short time span. The research will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20–22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
Kettlebell training may help reduce inflammation and increase muscle strength as we age, even in people who have not been physically active in the past. The findings from a new study will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20–22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
Drinking beetroot juice before a workout could enhance the benefits of exercise training in postmenopausal women, according to new research published in the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology.
Results from a new animal study published in the American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology found that maternal exposure to e-cigarette residues, with or without nicotine, affected offspring’s immune response later in life.
People with constipation may have a higher risk of having a heart attack or stroke, and the risk increases in people who also have high blood pressure. The findings of a new study are published in the American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology. The study has been chosen as an APSselect article for October.
Older adults with mild cognitive impairment showed greater resistance to brain blood flow compared to those without cognitive impediments.
The American Physiological Society and Wiley announce the relaunch of Comprehensive Physiology, now featuring a new scope focused on interorgan communication.
A new study in rats shows that lactate, a substance found in the muscles, initiates a cascade of actions in the muscles that helps blood vessels relax. The surprising results are published ahead of print in the journal Function.
The American Physiological Society (APS) congratulates Victor Ambros, PhD, and Gary Ruvkun, PhD, the 2024 recipients of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Participating in a high volume of exercise over a short period of time, such as cycling hundreds of miles in a few days, could reduce body fat levels without weight loss. The first-of-its-kind study is published ahead of print in the American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism and has been chosen as an APSselect article for September.
