The International Congress of Physiological Sciences 2025 (ICPS2025) will be held from October 9 to 12, 2025, in Hangzhou, China. Renowned for its captivating natural scenery and profound cultural heritage, Hangzhou provides an ideal setting for physiologists from around the world to gather. ICPS2025 will offer a dynamic platform for researchers across the globe to share the latest scientific achievements and advancements in the field of physiology.

The ICPS conference series began in 2008 in Beijing, followed by events in Suzhou in 2012, Beijing again in 2016, and most recently in Qingdao in 2024. ICPS2024 marked the series' first international gathering since the pandemic and was a tremendous success. It attracted over 1,800 participants from 16 countries and regions, featuring six plenary lectures, 42 symposia, and two forums for young physiological scientists. The high level of academic exchange and broad participation further solidified ICPS's reputation as a premier platform for global collaboration in physiological sciences.

To build on this success and further strengthen international cooperation, the Chinese Association for Physiological Sciences, in collaboration with several internationally renowned societies, has initiated preparations for ICPS2025. In addition to welcoming physiologists from across China, the Chinese Association for Physiological Sciences has specially invited hundreds of ethnic Chinese physiologists who have established laboratories and research programs around the world. Their participation is expected to bring fresh perspectives and foster in-depth exchanges of ideas and expertise.
