The Journal of Physiology publishes original Research papers in all areas of physiology illustrating new physiological principles or mechanisms. Papers on work at the molecular level, at the level of the cell membrane, single cells, tissues or organs and systems physiology are all considered, with an emphasis on human and mammalian physiology. Rapid Reports receive an accelerated review and publication, reflecting the expectation that these papers should be of particularly high interest and importance.
