Developed to incorporate the best of both core cell biology content and educational methodology, Cell Structure and Function: Mastering the Big Ideas is a concise, practical workbook for university and advanced-level high school biology students. Through a combination of targeted activities that enhance knowledge and strategies for successfully approaching challenging topics, the workbook increases student achievement and raises classroom performance overall. Each chapter clearly identifies concepts students typically struggle with and provides study tips for mastering them. Other chapter features include study questions that focus on major concepts, activities that reinforce them, drawing pages that target visual learning modes, worksheets that spark conversation and enable students to support and learn from each other, and pencasts that can be downloaded for additional clear explanation of core cell biology concepts. Incorporating extensive feedback from students and teaching assistants, Cell Structure and Function offers innovative, solid instruction in biochemistry and cell structure and function. Creative and concise in style and tone, yet comprehensive in scope, it is an ideal text for courses in introductory biology and cell biology.J. Reid Schwebach earned his Ph.D. in microbiology and immunology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and his Ed.M. in secondary science education at Teachers College, Columbia University. Prior to entering academia, Dr. Schwebach worked for the Board on Science Education at the National Research Council. He is currently a faculty member at George Mason University, where he also serves as coordinator of High School Outreach and Recruitment for the College of Science and works with student researchers to investigate the evolution of microbes and improve the ways in which undergraduate students study science at the university.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...
  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

  • Brain Asymmetry of Structure and/or Function
    Lesley J. Rogers / Lesley JRogers
    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

  • The Epithelialto- Mesenchymal Transition ( EMT ) in Cancer
    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
