INTRODUCTION. Systematic investigations (2014-1970) about integrative biophysics and physiology, esp. A.-philosophical considerations (epistemology/ethics) and (psycho-)physiological observations as well as electro-&motor-activities on cellular-organ-system levels incl.B.-myocytes, C.-cardio-vascular, D.-urogenital-systems, recognized by leading scientific-societies&journals [1-7] are summarized and given in

RESULTS (recent, related to earlier): see Neu/Michailov/Welscher et-al. IUPAB-2014.

This is an example for model about future integrative-biophysics&physiology, also recommendation to scientists for regular participation in biophysical&physiological-congresses.

CONclusion: Future biophysical education and research needs renewal by interdisciplinarity, beginning with implication of physiology, on example of electro-&motor activities in cardio-vascular and urogenital systems, related to fundamental biophysical open questions conc. electrical and molecular oscillatory-mechanisms (A-D). Their clarification could lead to better therapy of various important diseases. Future needs systematic investigations in long-term interdisciplinary research projects, reflected not only in reports in journals (e.g. Physiol. Rev., Pharmacol. Rev.), but also in scientific congresses, e.g. biophysics, physiology, etc. incl. implication of future scientific education, esp. biophysics, biochemistry, physiology, etc.
