  • Computational physiology

  • Cancer cell physiology

  • Lipid & fatty acid

  • Mitochondrial research

  • Developmental physiology

  • Exercise and metabolic physiology

  • Reb blood cell physiology

  • Bioimaging & biomarkers in physiology

  • Aquatic physiology

  • Invertebrate physiology

  • Avian physiology

  • Electrophysiology

  • Respiratory physiology

  • Cardiac & Vascular pathophysiology

  • Musculoskeletal Physiology

  • Renal pathophysiology

  • Neuropathology & physiology

  • Environmental & aviation, and space physiology

There are also opportunities for trainees:

  • The conference provides a unique opportunity for undergraduate, medical, and graduate students and early career stage scientists to learn about the latest research in the state of Arizona.

  • Students can present their own research during oral and poster presentation sessions, which is a great way to receive feedback from experts in the field.

  • With scheduled oral and poster presentations on various scientific topics, the conference also provides valuable networking and research collaboration opportunities.

  • The conference also offers a variety of scholarships and awards for students, which can help to offset the cost of attending.

We look forward to the meeting and connecting in person!
