Society of General Physiologists (SGP)
SGP was founded in 1946 "to promote and disseminate knowledge and interest in the subject of general physiology...." Their international membership is made up of nearly 1000 career physiologists who work in academia, government, and industry. They have become known for promoting and nurturing research related to membrane transport and ion channels; membrane structure, regulation, and dynamics; and cellular contractility and molecular motors.
The Society of General Physiologists is an inclusive, international scientific society whose goal is to advance the understanding of the fundamental physiological mechanisms and physical principles that govern the functioning of biological systems. In addition to promoting pioneering and innovative research, the Society advocates for education and training, and it is committed to increasing diversity in the scientific workforce.
