The Journal of Physiology publishes full-length original Research Papers and Techniques for Physiology, which are short papers aimed at disseminating new techniques for physiological research. Articles solicited by the Editorial Board include Perspectives, Symposium Reports and Topical Reviews, which highlight areas of special physiological interest. CrossTalk articles are short editorial-style invited articles framing a debate between experts in the field on controversial topics. Letters to the Editor and Journal Club articles are also published. All categories of papers are subjected to peer reivew.

The Journal of Physiology welcomes submitted research papers in all areas of physiology. Authors should present original work that illustrates new physiological principles or mechanisms. Papers on work at the molecular level, at the level of the cell membrane, single cells, tissues or organs and on systems physiology are all acceptable. Theoretical papers and papers that use computational models to further our understanding of physiological processes will be considered if based on experimentally derived data and if the hypothesis advanced is directly amenable to experimental testing. While emphasis is on human and mammalian physiology, work on lower vertebrate or invertebrate preparations may be suitable if it furthers the understanding of the functioning of other organisms including mammals.

《生理学杂志》出版完整的原创研究论文和生理学技术，这些论文是旨在传播生理学研究新技术的短文。编辑委员会征集的文章包括观点、研讨会报告和专题评论，重点介绍了特别关注的生理学领域。CrossTalk 文章是简短的编辑风格邀请文章，框架是该领域专家就有争议的话题进行的辩论。还出版了致编辑的信和期刊俱乐部文章。所有类别的论文都要经过同行评审。

《生理学杂志》欢迎提交生理学各个领域的研究论文。作者应提交原创作品，阐明新的生理原理或机制。关于分子水平、细胞膜水平、单细胞、组织或器官以及系统生理学的论文都是可以接受的。如果基于实验得出的数据并且提出的假设可以直接进行实验测试，那么理论论文和使用计算模型来进一步了解生理过程的论文将被考虑。虽然重点是人类和哺乳动物的生理学，但如果能进一步了解包括哺乳动物在内的其他生物的功能，那么对低等脊椎动物或无脊椎动物制剂的研究也是合适的。
