About

David Wright is a Professor at the University of British Columbia, Canada. His research encompasses areas such as exercise physiology, metabolism, and the metabolic effects of pharmaceuticals. Recent publications include studies on cardiac regulation during exercise, the impact of antipsychotics on metabolism, and the role of GDF15 in energy homeostasis. With a focus on both animal models and human leukocytes, Professor Wright's work contributes significantly to understanding metabolic responses to physical activity and dietary interventions.

During its first decade of life, Physiological Reports has become a home for well‐conceived and rigorously performed exercise physiology and metabolism studies. The breadth of research within this area is impressive, covering exercise‐induced increases in skeletal muscle gene expression to the effects of exercise on the gut microbiome. The purpose of the current review is to highlight some of the impactful exercise physiology and metabolism papers published in the journal and to look ahead to what areas exercise physiology publications might address in the next 10 years.
