• What Is Physiology? Decoding the Language of Life
    Jul 3 2025
    In this inaugural episode of Physiology Roundtable, our trio of expert hosts lay the groundwork for the entire series by exploring what physiology truly is — beyond textbook definitions. With engaging insights, real-world analogies, and clinical relevance, we uncover how physiology serves as the dynamic language that connects all living systems. Whether you're new to the field or revisiting core concepts, this episode will orient you to the principles, scope, and central importance of physiology in understanding health and disease. 🎯 Learning Objectives: By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to: Define physiology and distinguish it from related disciplines like anatomy and biochemistry. Describe the hierarchical organization of the human body from molecules to organ systems. Understand the significance of homeostasis and control mechanisms. Recognize the integrative nature of physiology in health, adaptation, and disease.
