Cell biology lab work aims to provide students with hands-on experience and practical knowledge in various areas related to the structure, function, and behavior of cells. These labs can be designed to achieve various objectives, including:
1. Develop practical skills in cell biology techniques: Students will learn and practice essential techniques used in cell biology research and applications.
2. Distinguish the cell biology concepts: Through practical experience, students will solidify their understanding of theoretical concepts learned in lectures.
3. Construct critical thinking and problem-solving skills: encourages students to formulate hypotheses, analyze and interpret data, troubleshoot and adapt procedures.
4. Create scientific communication and collaboration: often involves working in teams, promoting: Collaborating between students and scientific communication.

Cell biology (also cellular biology) is a branch of biology that studies the structure, function, and behavior of cells. All living organisms are made of cells. A cell is the basic unit of life that is responsible for the living and functioning of organisms.
Cell biology is the study of the structural and functional units of cells. Cell biology encompasses both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and has many subtopics which may include the study of cell metabolism, cell communication, cell cycle, biochemistry, and cell composition.
The study of cells is performed using several microscopy techniques, cell culture, and cell fractionation. These have allowed for and are currently being used for discoveries and research pertaining to how cells function, ultimately giving insight into understanding larger organisms.
Knowing the components of cells and how cells work is fundamental to all biological sciences while also being essential for research in biomedical fields such as cancer, and other diseases. Research in cell biology is interconnected to other fields such as genetics, molecular genetics, molecular biology, medical microbiology, and immunology.

The student should typically have a strong foundation in biology, chemistry, physics, and sometimes even math to study this module.
Biology: This is the foundation for understanding cell biology. A general biology course will introduce you to the basic concepts of life, including cell structure and function, genetics, and evolution.
Organic Chemistry: Organic chemistry is the study of carbon based molecules, which are the building blocks of life. While not always required, understanding organic chemistry can be helpful for understanding the structure and function of biological molecules, such as proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids.
Physics: provides a foundation for understanding the physical principles that govern cellular processes, such as diffusion, osmosis, and thermodynamics. You'll likely need to cover topics like mechanics, electricity, and magnetism.
Calculus: Although not always required, calculus can be helpful for understanding some of the quantitative aspects of cell biology, such as modeling cellular processes.

Notice :
All Students are invited to test there knowledge before starting this course, to make sure they have the prerequisite needed to study this module.
-
Google Meet™ for Moodle
- The first meeting with your professor will help you for clarification and guidance
- If you have any questions about the syllabus, course expectations, or challenging concepts
- The first meeting is a perfect opportunity to seek clarification directly from the source. This can help you get off on the right foot and avoid confusion later.
