The Journal publishes the results of original research considered likely to further the physiological sciences in their broadest sense. Papers on pathophysiological or methodological topics will also be considered in so far as the information they contain can be used as a tool for further investigation of physiological mechanisms. In other words their subject matter must clearly convey a physiological message. Purely clinical papers will be excluded. Short communications are reserved for the publication of forefront material not yet in full paper form but of immediate interest to our readers. Articles should include a declaration to the effect that the experiments comply with the current laws of the country in which the experiments were performed.
