Events

Dr Catherine Hall (University of Sussex, UK), as Chair, welcomed members of the committee, including new members, Professor Paul Greenhaff (University of Nottingham) representing The Journal of Physiology and also Dr Joe Costello (University of Portsmouth) representing Experimental Physiology.

The main agenda item, a continuation from CC22.01, centred on Society conferences and meetings for 2023 and beyond, and how these could best support physiology and physiologists, also engage the membership and their communities. The Committee noted that the 2023 meetings calendar had been populated with the following five meetings following the recent call:

  • Innovation and Updates in Teaching and Student Education across Physiology and STEM in the UK (12 – 13 April, University of Leeds, UK)
  • Membrane Transport 2023: Recent Research into Ion Channels, Transporters and Epithelial Physiology (24 – 25 August, University of St Andrews, UK)
  • Cross-Talk of Cells in the Heart: Novel Mechanisms of Disease and Arrhythmias (11 – 12 September, University of
    Liverpool, UK)
  • Regenerating the Cardiovascular System: Mending Broken Hearts and Beyond (13 – 14 September, University of Oxford, UK
  • Neurophysiological Bases of Human Movement (12 – 13 December, King’s College London, UK)

There was also some discussion on additional support for meetings organised by members outside of the two-day meeting format. These ideas will be developed and refined in 2023.

Finally, Professor Raheela Khan (University of Nottingham, UK) was warmly thanked for her time and commitment to the Committee during her time as a Trustee.
