The scientific career of E Hogyes was throughout closely linked to the physiological sciences. He contributed significantly in different fields of the physiological sciences. His most important scientific publications in this field deal with renal physiology, respiratory mechanics, cerebellar function and associated eye movements. Endre Hogyes was the first to organize Hungarian physiologists into a community.
