KCJJ"后基因组时代的生物医学研究主要是以细胞为基础进行的。因此细胞生物学是理解当今生命科学各学科知识的基础。本课程面向具有医学和生物学基础知识的硕、博士研究生，对21世纪的细胞生物学基本知识进行全面而概要的介绍，内容分4篇14章，包括：概论、细胞基本结构与功能、细胞的物质运输与信号转导、细胞增殖、分化、衰老与死亡。特点是结合医学、结合各项诺贝尔奖工作、结合科学发现的历程讲述有关细胞结构、功能和活动的知识点，并重点介绍本领域最新研究成果。本课程开设虽然时间不长，但已显示一定特色，一方面授课教师为多年从事医学细胞生物学研究合教学的资深教师和一直在实验台前工作的中青年教师，熟悉若干领域的研究进展，讲课注重个人体会和总结，另一方面教研室着力推行教改，平时授课过程中贯穿对各知识点融会贯通的介绍和对前人创造知识历程的介绍，启发对存在问题的思考；考试则采用读书报告的形式，引导学生投身科学探索的热情，调动学生总结科学问题的兴趣，同时培养他们口头讲述的能力。近年修课学生人数逐年上升。"

KCJJYBiomedical (bio-med) research in the post-genomic time is usually based on the cell. Cell biology therefore has become the basis of understanding the various aspects of bio-med knowledge. This course faces to the graduate students who are going to do bio-med research soon, introduce the current essential concepts and knowledge in cell biology in a way of overview and outline. The contents include 14 chapters, e.g. The basic structures and functions of the cells, Cellular transport and signaling, The proliferation, differentiation and death of the cells, and etc. The course emphasizes the association with medicine, and takes a number of the Nobel Prize works as the cases to describe the histories of discovery behind the well-formed and emerging concepts. The teachers are the senior scientists and professor or the younger ones who remain stuck to bench work, therefore telling their personal perception in class. The way of examination is to write a reading report based on a case of Nobel Prize works or a number of scientific articles, thus to encourage the students’ enthusiasm to explore the unknown and to train their ability to summarize and to present.
