Hypoxia Biology and Medicine is a newly established, peer-reviewed, open-access English academic journal dedicated to advancing research in hypoxia-related biology, fundamental medicine, and clinical translation. The journal covers a broad interdisciplinary spectrum, integrating findings from biology, physiology, and medicine, with a focus on the effects of hypoxia, adaptive responses to hypoxia stress, and adverse reactions. It also highlights scientific advancements in fields such as high-altitude medicine, exercise physiology, pulmonary and cardiovascular medicine, inflammation, immunology, cancer, and metabolic diseases.
Hypoxia Biology and Medicine explores how cells, tissues, and organisms respond to hypoxic conditions, incorporating perspectives from molecular biology, genetics, medicine, environmental science, and other disciplines. Centered on hypoxia biology, the journal encompasses research at various levels—from molecular mechanisms to translational medical applications—while continuously expanding into emerging areas driven by technological advancements. Additionally, it welcomes multidisciplinary studies and innovative scientific applications in hypoxia-related medicine.
