ABOUT THE 4th INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF THE PORTUGUESE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY (SPF)
Held every two years, this 2026 edition convened physiologists and life science researchers, educators and students from Portugal and the Portuguese diaspora in Europe and elsewhere at the Lisbon campus of Lusófona University. It also reached the Lusophone communities sharing the Portuguese language and the Iberian space through the Brazilian Society of Physiology (SBFis) and different colleagues from close geographies as invited participants. Once again, the Federation of European Physiological Societies (FEPS) was represented by its chairman, confirming a fruitful alignment of interests and development strategies to foster physiology knowledge and careers in Portugal, in Europe, and all over the world.
This vibrant, diverse community carried forward the rich traditions of Portugal and the timeless spirit of exploration we shared with the world. Here, physiological knowledge was and is celebrated and exchanged in a setting shaped by centuries of discovery, curiosity, and global connection—empowering research that reaches far beyond our borders.
