SGP was founded in 1946 "to promote and disseminate knowledge and interest in the subject of general physiology...."  Our international membership is made up of nearly 1000 career physiologists who work in academia, government, and industry. We have become known for promoting and nurturing research related to membrane transport and ion channels; membrane structure, regulation, and dynamics; and cellular contractility and molecular motors.
