The Mission of the Physiology Section

The Physiology Section promotes excellence in the science of fish physiology through improved communication between researchers and other professionals who need the most up-to-date information on physiological processes, tools, and techniques. The Section publishes a newsletter, and conducts symposia and workshops to disseminate the results of basic and applied research on fish physiology to the scientific and professional community, resource users, and the general public.
