ROYAL SOCIETY PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS A

 In  2008 the journal of the Royal Society Philosophical Transactions A (RSTA) started to host an annual two volume special issue entirely focused on the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH). These are the titles of the VPH special issues so far:

2010 was an extremely successful year for the Royal Society journals. They report that they have witnessed an impressive rise in submissions, as well as an exceptional rise in article downloads, citations and Impact Factors. The Royal Society Publishing has provided the RSTA citation statistics for 2009. Among the 10 most cited papers,  four were from the 2009 VPH special two volume issue.  These articles were freely available online throughout 2010.

A systems perspective on the effective connectivity of overt speech production (2009 vol II) Simon Eickhoff, Stefan Heim, Katrin Amunts

CellML metadata standards, associated tools and repositories (2009 vol I) Daniel Beard, Randall Britten, Mike Cooling, Alan Garny, Matt Halstead, Peter Hunter, James Lawson, Catherine Lloyd, Justin Marsh, Andrew Miller, David Nickerson, Poul Nielsen, Taishin Nomura, Shankar Subramanium, Sarala Wimalaratne and Tommy Yu

CELLULAR OPEN RESOURCE (COR): current status and future directions (2009 vol I) Alan Garny, Denis Noble, Peter Hunter and Peter Kohl

Generation of histo-anatomically representative models of the individual heart: tools and application (2009 vol II). Gernot Plank, Rebecca Burton, Patrick Hales, Martin Bishop, Tahir Mansoori, Miguel Bernabeu, Alan Garny, Anton Prassl, Christian Bollensdorff, Fleur Mason, Fahd Mahmood, Blanca Rodriguez, Jürgen Schneider, David Gavaghan and Peter Kohl

INTERFACE FOCUS

The Virtual Physiological Human Issue of Interface Focus (2011) was a collection of the best papers from VPH210 and reflecting the meeting's theme, is predominantly on cardiovascular topics.
