What is Physiology?

Physiology is the branch of science that focuses on understanding the functions and mechanisms of living organisms. It explores how various systems in the body work together to maintain homeostasis and ensure the proper functioning of the human body. Physiology encompasses the study of organs, tissues, cells, and molecules.

Physiology however isn’t just restricted to the study of the human body and it can encompass a wide range of disciplines, including human physiology, animal physiology, plant physiology, and cellular physiology.

By investigating physiological processes, researchers gain insights into how the body adapts to different conditions and the subject serves as a foundation for advancing medical knowledge and improving healthcare practices.

What skills or knowledge will help you to learn Physiology?

Having a strong understanding of basic biological concepts, such as cell structure, molecular biology, and genetics, is crucial for comprehending the complex mechanisms studied in physiology.  Similarly, knowledge of fundamental concepts in chemistry, including biochemistry and organic chemistry, provides a solid foundation for understanding physiological processes at the molecular level.

Studying physiology involves conducting experiments, collecting data, and analysing results. Understanding scientific methods and experimental design allows you to conduct rigorous investigations, make accurate observations, and draw valid conclusions. Familiarity with statistical analysis is also beneficial in interpreting physiological data and allowing you to evaluate and interpret data, identify patterns, and make connections between different concepts.

The ability to effectively communicate scientific ideas and findings is essential in physiology. Whether presenting research findings, writing reports, or explaining complex concepts to others, strong communication skills are necessary to allow for the clear and concise sharing of information.

What jobs can you get after studying Physiology?

A degree in physiology opens up a wide range of career opportunities. Graduates with a background in physiology can pursue various professions such as a research scientist. Many physiologists work in research settings They may conduct experiments, analyse data, and publish research findings in scientific journals.

Physiologists often work in healthcare settings, utilising their knowledge to diagnose and treat patients. They may specialise in areas such as exercise physiology, cardiovascular physiology, among others. The pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries also offer opportunities for physiologists to contribute to the development and testing of new drugs and therapies.

Physiologists can contribute to public health policies by researching the impact of lifestyle choices, environmental factors, and disease on physiological processes. They may work in government agencies, non-profit organisations, or private sectors, developing policies and strategies to promote health and well-being.

With further education, physiologists can pursue teaching positions at colleges and universities. They may also engage in academic research, mentoring students, and contributing to the scientific community through publications and conferences.

What types of tutors do we have providing Physiology classes?

Our list of Physiology tutors around the country are highly qualified and educated in the subject.  We have numerous graduate students or researchers in Physiology who offer tutoring services to undergraduate students. Their advanced knowledge and experience in the field make them excellent tutors who can provide valuable insights and guidance.

We even have some professional physiologists offering private tutoring to students interested in delving deeper into the subject. These tutors bring real-world experience and expertise, offering a unique perspective on the practical applications of physiology.

Are Physiology grinds very expensive?

Due to the level of expertise and experience many of our Physiology tutors have, you might be afraid that their classes will be prohibitively expensive but the good news is that they are very affordable and accessible for all.

The average rate for an hour-long lesson is in fact 20 euro with many talented individuals offering lessons at or close to that price. The prices can differ due to the specific qualifications, experience, teaching style, and availability of a tutor.

All of our tutors set their own price and so you can find some big variations in pricing but each tutor will be taking into account their own qualifications and expertise and charging what they think is fair.
