Home›Life Sciences›In Group›Physiology And MedicineGroupPhysiology And MedicineThis group collects the Life Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns physiology and medicine: how living bodies function, and the physicians and medical researchers whose discoveries about disease, treatment and the body's own systems shaped the life sciences. It is kept apart from Microbiology, whose members study the microorganisms that cause disease rather than the body's own systems and their treatment.FactsPhysiology And MedicineSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonPrimary Research ApproachWell-attestedExperimental 1Physiology And MedicineFilter Results42 entriesDisciplineAllAnthropology (1)Biology (8)Biophysics (1)Botany (4)Chemistry (1)Geology (2)Immunology (2)Medicine (20)Microbiology (2)Molecular Biology (1)Neuroscience (2)Ornithology (2)Paleontology (1)Pharmacology (4)Psychology (2)Virology (2)Zoology (5)EraAll936 (1)1215 (1)1666 (1)1707 (1)1749 (1)1795 (2)1800 (1)1804 (1)1807 (1)1809 (1)1832 (1)1838 (1)1843 (1)1854 (2)1861 (1)1868 (1)1873 (1)1874 (1)1879 (2)1884 (1)1886 (1)1887 (2)1898 (1)1903 (1)1907 (1)1909 (1)1911 (1)1915 (1)1922 (1)1924 (1)1934 (1)1937 (1)1941 (1)1958 (1)1967 (1)NationalityAllArgentina (1)Armenia (1)Australia (1)Australia (2)Austria (3)Austrian Empire (1)Brazil (1)Denmark (1)France (1)German Empire (1)German Reich (1)Germany (4)India (1)India (2)Italy (1)Kingdom of Italy (1)Kingdom of Prussia (2)Morocco (1)Netherlands (1)Romania (1)Saudi Arabia (1)Sweden (1)Switzerland (1)United Kingdom (8)United States (5)FieldAllAnthropology (1)Biology (22)Chemistry (6)Earth Science (3)Engineering (2)Medicine (30)Neuroscience (2)Physics (1)Psychology (2)Sociology (1)InstitutionAllAmerican Philosophical Society (1)Bose Institute (1)Humboldt University of Berlin (1)Johns Hopkins University (1)King's College London (1)L.
