100 years Journal of Comparative Physiology.

The Journal of Comparative Physiology is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. Founded in 1924, the journal focuses on the publication of articles in neurophysiology, sensory physiology, metabolic physiology, and environmental adaptation. Comparative physiology aims to understand the diversity and plasticity of physiological mechanisms among animal species, and its research contributes to a better understanding of human biology and medicine. The journal has published numerous articles on a wide range of topics, including glucose metabolism in fish, the evolution of brown adipose tissue, and the role of membrane lipids in animal longevity. The editorial board has changed over the years, and the current editors are from various countries. The journal also published a special issue on the comparative physiology of sleep and circadian rhythms for its 100th anniversary. Overall, the journal continues to support basic research in animal physiology. [Extracted from the article]
