Has the time for systems physiology passed?
During the recent decades, substantial changes are made in the borders and contents of physiology as a basic course for the students in medicine. Here some strategies are presented to preserve the classical and integrative approaches in teaching physiology, while these approaches extent our knowledge to molecular, sub-cellular and cellular levels.

Few days ago our advisory editorial board member Prof. Gholam A. Peyman was named as one of the 12 eminent researcher recipients of the National Medal of Technology and Innovation in US. Eleven extraordinary inventors were also named recipients of the National Medal of Technology and Innovation. This award and the National Medal of Science designations are the uppermost honors bestowed by the f...
full textHow much time has passed? Ask your heart
Internal signals like one's heartbeats are centrally processed via specific pathways and both their neural representations as well as their conscious perception (interoception) provide key information for many cognitive processes. Recent empirical findings propose that neural processes in the insular cortex, which are related to bodily signals, might constitute a neurophysiological mechanism fo...

Gender verification: a concept whose time has come and passed? Gender verification was hardly an issue at the inception of the ancient Olympic games in Greece. Competition was restricted to men, and the competitors entered the stadium unclad. No doubt existed about their gender. However, with the addition of women to Olympic competition in 1912, concerns were raised about the possibility of men...
full textCompositional assessment of transgenic crops: an idea whose time has passed.
Compositional studies comparing transgenic crops with non-transgenic crops are almost universally required by governmental regulatory bodies to support the safety assessment of new transgenic crops. Here we discuss the assumptions that led to this requirement and lay out the theoretical and empirical evidence suggesting that such studies are no more necessary for evaluating the safety of transg...
full textChanging Social Security benefits to reflect child-care years: a policy proposal whose time has passed?
This article estimates the effects of proposals to increase the retirement benefits of women who reduce their earnings to care for young children. Using the 1990 Survey of Income and Program Participation file--exactly matched to the Social Security Administration's record of lifetime earnings--the authors present the distribution of child-care dropout years by retirement cohort and other demog...
