from-president

On behalf of the International Association of Physiological Anthropology (IAPA), I am delighted to welcome you to our global community.

 

In an era of rapid technological and environmental change, the insights provided by physiological anthropology are more relevant than ever. Our association serves as a bridge between fundamental human biology and practical applications that enhance human well-being. Building upon the strong foundation laid by my predecessors, I am committed to further diversifying our network and fostering innovation across disciplines.

 

The IAPA, in collaboration with the JSPA and the Journal of Physiological Anthropology (JPA), remains dedicated to supporting the next generation of scientists. I warmly invite you to participate in our upcoming conferences and contribute to our peer-reviewed publications. Your expertise and passion are what drive this field forward.

 

I look forward to working with all of you to expand the horizons of our science. Should you have any suggestions for the association, my door is always open.

 

Sincerely,

Taro Yamauchi
President, IAPA
