Physiology forms the scientific foundation of modern medicine, linking cellular mechanisms with systemic functions that sustain human life. In the context of contemporary healthcare, understanding physiological principles is not only essential for clinical decision-making but also for effective health management. This study explores the integration of physiological reasoning into health system governance, clinical protocols, and practice management. Through a systematic literature review, this paper examines how physiological understanding informs policies in resource allocation, technology adoption, and service delivery. The findings reveal that physiological literacy among healthcare leaders improves clinical efficiency, enhances patient safety, and supports rational health planning. Therefore, strengthening physiological education and its application in health management is crucial to building sustainable, effective, and patient-centered health systems.

The Role of AI in Transforming Teacher Education in Nigeria: Opportunities and Challenges
This study looks at how artificial intelligence (AI) might change teacher education in Nigeria by boosting administrative effectiveness, improving assessment and classroom practices, strengthening professional development, and personalizing teacher learning. It maps opportunities (adaptive learning tools, automated feedback, content generation, data-driven decision-making) and challenges (digital infrastructure gaps, teacher readiness, ethical risks, policy and regulatory lacunae) based on policy documents, international guidance, and recent empirical studies. In order to generate practical suggestions for legislators, teacher educators, and development partners, the study employs a qualitative synthesis of secondary literature and policy analysis. Important suggestions include incorporating AI literacy into teacher preparation, testing professional development initiatives powered by AI, bolstering digital infrastructure and data governance, and implementing moral standards in line with national and UNESCO policies. The study concludes that AI can be a catalytic force in teacher education in Nigeria but only if investments align with capacity building, inclusivity, and robust governance.

Waqf Business Model (WBM): Towards A Sustainable Social Business Model on The Mainstream Economics
The Waqf Business Model (WBM) represents an innovative and transformative approach to establishing a sustainable social business model within mainstream economics, rooted in Islamic economic principles. This paper explores the current state of waqf as an alternative model for social business, emphasizing its ability to combine social impact with long-term economic sustainability by preserving assets and generating ongoing revenue. It also advocates for integrating WBM into the mainstream economy to serve as a powerful mechanism for addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The paper highlights the challenges faced by traditional Islamic economic institutions, particularly waqf, which have struggled due to outdated management practices and a conceptual crisis regarding the role of waqf in modern economies. Revitalizing waqf institutions requires enhancing their capabilities and aligning them with contemporary business strategies. Additionally, this paper encourages future research to explore how WBM can be fully integrated into the existing economic ecosystem. In theory, WBM provides a framework for ethical and inclusive economies, while in practice, it has the potential to create self-sustaining institutions that reduce reliance on external aid, offering an innovative solution to global socio-economic challenges by blending sustainable innovation.
