The Journal of Physiological Sciences is the official journal of the Physiological Society of Japan. Its purpose is to publish papers that present original experimental work and that are within the broad range of physiology. Membership in the Society is not a prerequisite for publication. Submissions for the category "Short Communications", when accepted, will be processed as quickly as possible to meet the requirement for rapid publication. Papers concerned with methods are accepted as "Technical Notes" if they involve new principles and are shown to be of value and interest to physiologists.  "Letter to the Editor" provides a forum for short discussions of papers the journal has published.
