Chemoreception From Cellular Signaling to Functional Plasticity / edited by Jean-Marc Pequignot, Constancio Gonzalez, Colin A. Nurse, Nanduri R. Prabhakar, Yvette Dalmaz.

Since 1959, the International Society of Arterial Chemoreception (ISAC) has organized in a variety of countries fifteen scientific meetings devoted to the mechanisms of peripheral arterial chemoreception and chemoreceptor reflexes. After the meeting held in Philadelphia with Sukhamay Lahiri as presi...
