Physiology Department
Physiology is a multifaceted field that seeks to understand the complex mechanisms of the human body, from the behaviour of individual cells to the integrated behaviour of whole organ systems. At the cellular and molecular level, physiologists study the molecular machinery that regulates gene expression, cell communication, and the trafficking of molecules within cells. At the systems level, physiologists explore how cells and molecules work together to produce the complex conduct of organs and systems, such as the digestive or circulatory systems. This knowledge is essential for developing new medical treatments and therapies, including identifying targets for drug development and designing and testing medical devices. Physiologists play a critical role in advancing our understanding of human biology and improving human health by unlocking the mysteries of the human body and developing new strategies for diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease
