Join HPS
We are fully committed to inclusivity. Our society consists of scientists, educators, and administrators currently engaged in careers related to the physiological sciences or who have retired from such careers. Students interested in pursuing careers in the physiological sciences are encouraged to join HPS. Opportunities for students to take on leadership roles in HPS exist. Basically, anyone interested in who we are and what we do, and who wants to participate in our activities can apply for membership. If you want to join HPS or find out more, go to the “Contact Us” link and submit your contact information and any questions you have. We’ll get back to you.
