Molecular Cell Biology provides the essential linkage between important basic fields of biomedical sciences, such as genetics, developmental biology, immunology, neurobiology and cancer biology. Cell biology has indeed matured from a descriptive discipline into one that is focusing on the elucidation of function at cellular and molecular levels. As we will soon have identified all the gene products that are potentially synthesized by an organism, it will be essential to connect sequence information to physiological function with the context of the cell. Cell biology at the University of Florida is a highly interdisciplinary research area which is undergoing rapid growth in areas such as cell regulation and cancer, manipulation of stem cells and the role of aberrant protein processing and trafficking in disease processes. Therefore, Molecular Cell Biology will be at the center of the new era of biomedical research.
