To facilitate self-study and mastery of both Chinese and English concepts, each chapter ends with review questions. The appendix of the textbook provides Chinese explanations for commonly used terms in cell biology. This bilingual textbook is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in comprehensive universities, normal universities, medical colleges, and agricultural and forestry colleges. It can also be used as a reference for teachers, researchers, and science and education administrators.
This textbook was developed under the leadership of the Cell Teaching Group of the Life Sciences College at Fudan University. It was compiled by 11 professors and experts from domestic and international comprehensive, normal, medical, and agricultural and forestry institutions, who have long been engaged in teaching and research in cell and molecular biology. The compilation was directly supervised by Professor George E. Stark, a renowned molecular cell biologist and member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.
