David C. Poole is acclaimed nationally and internationally for his research that seeks to resolve the basic mechanisms responsible for pathological dysfunction in diseases, such as heart failure and diabetes. His laboratory is funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association. He joined the faculty at Kansas State University in 1994 with a joint appointment in the departments of Kinesiology and Anatomy and Physiology and was promoted to full professor in 2000. David received his undergraduate training in applied physiology at Liverpool Polytechnic in England, where he published his first peer-reviewed research paper at the age of 21. He received his master’s degree in 1984 and his doctorate in kinesiology, specializing in physiology, in 1986 from the University of California at Los Angeles. David was awarded the higher Doctor of Science degree from John Moores University, Liverpool, in 2001 in recognition of his contributions to our understanding of oxygen transport and the microcirculation in health and disease.

ISSUE 2
The Journal of Applied Physiology publishes original papers that deal with diverse areas of research in applied physiology, especially those papers emphasizing adaptive and integrative mechanisms. Adaptive physiology includes 1) inherent adaptations such as those related to development, aging, and pathophysiological conditions and 2) adaptations to the external environment such as those occurring with exercise, microgravity, hypoxia, hypo- and hyperbaria, and hypo- and hyperthermic conditions. Integrative physiology includes 1) horizontal integration across organ systems and 2) vertical integration from molecule to cell to organ. In all areas of applied physiology, the use of cutting-edge techniques including molecular and cellular biology is strongly encouraged.

The wide scientific span of the Journal rests on physiology as its keystone. However, the boundaries of physiology have enlarged as demarcations between concepts and techniques in the physiological, pharmacological, and biochemical sciences become increasingly blurred. Moreover, theoretical articles on research at any level of biological organization ranging from molecules to humans fall within the broad scope of the Journal. Papers dealing with topics in other basic sciences that impinge on physiology are also welcome.
