Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:
These subjects provide the essential biological and chemical understanding required across all three fields.
Anatomy & Physiology: Comparative anatomy (differences between species) and systemic physiology.
Biochemistry & Molecular Biology: Metabolic pathways, genetic expression, and cellular function.
Microbiology & Immunology: Bacteriology, virology, mycology, and the body’s defense mechanisms.
Pathology: The study of disease processes, cell injury, and tissue repair.
Pharmacology: Pharmacokinetics ($PK$) and pharmacodynamics ($PD$), toxicology, and drug interactions.
