Ákos Koller participates in the 2025 Regional Physiology Meeting

Professor Emeritus of Hungarian University of Sports Science (HUSS) Ákos Koller took part as a speaker at the Regional Physiology Meeting held in Ljubljana between September 24 and 26, 2025. This international professional forum addressed the current challenges of physiological research and education.

Professor Ákos Koller was an invited speaker at the 2025 Regional Physiology Meeting, titled "Advancing Physiology: Bridging Education, Research, and Practice." The meeting took place at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, from September 24 to 26, 2025.

The 2025 Regional Physiology Meeting included a series of scientific presentations and student workshops, where participants focused on current challenges and research in various fields of general physiology, particularly in the context of health and disease. In this regard, attendees also emphasized the vital role of sports as a key preventive measure against most diseases.

The event attracted participants from across the region and beyond, including numerous European countries such as Italy, Slovenia, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, Japan, Portugal, Poland, Turkey, Sweden, Germany, and the USA. It offered an excellent opportunity for networking, knowledge exchange, and collaboration in the field of (patho)physiological research, covering both basic (preclinical) and clinical studies.

In addition to invited speakers, young researchers gave “blitz presentations” on three different topics, and poster sessions were also held. The conference provided a vibrant, interactive, and informative platform for discussions, which often lead to new collaborations.

The title of Ákos Koller’s presentation was “Regulation of Brain Flows: The Volume Control of Blood, CSF, and Lymph.” The topic is of critical importance, as pressure within the skull and spinal canal must remain nearly constant to ensure proper functioning of the central nervous system.

This phenomenon was recognized even during the time of the Incas. When intracranial pressure increased – causing severe pain – they would trepan the skull.
