This note is designed to introduce students to the principals of
cellular and molecular biology, genetics, and evolution. It is intended for
biology majors intending to take more advanced courses later in their academic
careers. Emphasis is on cellular structure and function, metabolism, and
replication. Additional topics covered will include genetics, biotechnology, and
pharmaceuticals.
This book provides a
comprehensive overview of some of the advanced cell culture methodologies and
applications. It serves as a valuable source for scientists, researchers,
clinicians and students.
This book is an open
access collection of invited, original, peer-reviewed chapters covering a range
of topics related to stem cell biology written by top researchers in the field
at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute and worldwide. Stem Book is aimed at stem
cell and non-specialist researchers.
