Cell Biology

Cell Biology is a fundamental branch of biology that studies the structure, function, and behavior of cells, which are the basic units of life responsible for the living and functioning of organisms. Coursera's Cell Biology catalogue teaches you about the intricate components of cells, including organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum, as well as cellular processes such as metabolism, signaling, and division. You'll learn to analyze cell structure using microscopy techniques, perform cell culture experiments, interpret cellular fractionation results, and understand the molecular basis of cellular functions like protein synthesis and energy production. Mastering Cell Biology empowers you to pursue careers in biomedical research, biotechnology, and healthcare, providing essential knowledge for advancing fields such as cancer research, drug development, and regenerative medicine.
