What is Molecular Cell Biology?
All living organisms are made up of cells. Each cell is made up millions of microscopic particles organized into specific compartments or regions of the cell. Molecular cell biology is the study of how cells utilize and organize these particles to carryout its activities. This can include how the cell moves, transports material, creates new molecules like proteins and much more!
