La fisiología respiratoria, o estudio de la respiración, ocupa un lugar menor en los comienzos de la medicina occidental, y las referencias a la misma son confusas y contradictorias. Como en el resto de la medicina, en la época moderna se producen los descubrimientos funda-mentales, que permiten la entrada de la fisiología en el siglo XX con una presencia relevante. En la segunda mi-tad de dicho siglo, su cuerpo de doctrina es ya tan sóli-do y su orientación aplicada a la clínica tan promete-dora, que configuran la base de la neumología como especialidad clínica. Al comienzo del siglo XXI, sin embargo, su protagonismo parece haber disminuido a causa del extraordinario y fructífero avance de la inmu-nología celular y la biología molecular. Veamos breve-mente la cronología del desarrollo de la fisiología y pa-semos por Delfos para ver qué puede depararle el futuro próximo.

N2 - This article describes the current status of social work field education in the United Arab Emirates. Using a case study approach, the authors explore field education differences and commonalities between two federal higher education institutions. Although nascent, United Arab Emirate professional organizations have been established or are in the process of being established. The authors call for further development of field guidelines and standards of practice, weighing the potential costs and benefits of such standards. Practical recommendations for field education in countries where social work is an emerging discipline are also provided.
