Mathematical physiology is an interdisciplinary science.Primarily, it investigates ways in which mathematics may be used to give insight into physiological questions. In turn, it also describes how physiological questions can lead to new mathematical problems.

Human physiology is the study of how the human body's systems and functions work together to maintain a stable internal environment. It includes the study of the nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, and urinary systems, as well as cellular and exercise physiology.
Medical biophysics is a field closely related to physiology. It explains various aspects and systems of the body from a physical and mathematical perspective. Examples are fluid dynamics of blood flow, gas physics of respiration, radiation in diagnostics/treatment and much more.
He was previously a professor at the University of Pretoria Faculty of Law and the founding director of the university's Centre for Human Rights. [188] He currently sits on the board of the Centre for Human Rights and the University of Pretoria Council. [188] Johann Kriegler is a former Constitutional Court and Appeal Court judge from South Africa.
He also noted that how the human sensitivity to stimuli changes depends on which sense is affected. He used this to formulate another version of Weber's law that he named die Maßformel, the "measurement formula". Fechner's law states that the subjective sensation is proportional to the logarithm of the stimulus intensity.
Musculoskeletal physiology is the branch of physiology which addresses the processes of musculoskeletal system. [ 1 ] In subclassifying musculoskeletal physiology, MeSH emphasizes the division between "phenomena" and "processes".
In evolutionary game theory, developed first by John Maynard Smith and George R. Price, selection acts directly on inherited phenotypes, without genetic complications. This approach has been mathematically refined to produce the field of adaptive dynamics .
