Last year we surveyed members on how we could improve our support for networking and engagement, and an overwhelming majority told us they would find an online discussion area of benefit.
This online community is a great place to join physiologists from across the world to discuss, learn and share ideas. We have built this new Member Community from the ground up and tailored it exclusively to meet the needs of our members, so that you are able to:
- Build supportive relationships and grow your network with physiologists across career stages and interests.
- Expand the reach of your research with our lively, global community.
- Share your ideas and explore new approaches to research and teaching in a friendly, supportive environment.
- Develop your career through member-only professional development webinars and resources.
- Continue the conversation beyond our conferences and webinars.
Ask Me Anything
As part of our launch, we have a series of four ‘Ask Me Anything’s’ in coming weeks, which will allow you to put your questions to key people in The Society:
- Professor Mike Tipton – Editor-in-Chief of Experimental Physiology
- Professor Kim Barett – Editor-in-Chief, The Journal of Physiology
- Professor David Paterson – President, The Physiological Society
- Dariel Burdass – Chief Executive, The Physiological Society
These will take place on the Member Community and so are exclusively available to members – don’t miss out!
To access the Member Community
To login, visit our website at physoc.org and click the ‘login’ button at the top right. Then enter your username and password – these are the same details as you use to log in to the portal to book an event or apply for a grant. If you have forgotten your password you can request a new one. If you have any problems please contact our membership team.
Once logged in, you will be taken to your personalised Member Area homepage. Here, you are able to view the latest news and events, and over the coming months we will tailor this further to specific member types. From here you can access the Member Community and start new discussion threads, or reply to existing conversations.
