IPJ Membership Program
Join the global community advancing physiological science through collaborative research and evidence-based discovery.
Partner with the International Physiology Journal
IPJ membership connects physiologists, biomedical researchers, and clinical scientists with the worldwide physiology community, providing exclusive benefits while supporting advances in understanding human body function and biological systems.
Our membership program sustains open access publishing that makes critical physiology research freely available to scientists, clinicians, and educators globally, advancing knowledge of organ systems, cellular mechanisms, and integrative biology.
The International Physiology Journal serves researchers, clinicians, and educators working across cardiovascular physiology, neurophysiology, respiratory science, renal function, endocrinology, and integrative systems biology. Membership demonstrates commitment to advancing physiological knowledge while providing tangible benefits supporting your publication goals and professional development in the biomedical sciences.
Publication Cost Savings
Members receive significant discounts on article processing charges, making open access publication more accessible for physiology research. Individual and institutional tiers offer graduated savings based on laboratory and research publishing volume.
Priority Processing
Member submissions receive expedited editorial handling, reducing time from submission to publication for your cardiovascular, neural, and metabolic research. Your findings reach the scientific community faster without compromising peer review quality.
Enhanced Visibility
Member publications receive promotional support through journal channels, professional networks, and newsletter features that amplify the scientific impact of your physiological discoveries.
Community Recognition
Membership acknowledgment in the journal demonstrates your commitment to physiological science excellence. Annual recognition celebrates members supporting open access biomedical research.
