About CellBASE

CellBASE is a comprehensive, multimedia-based web resource covering all aspects of cell biology. It contains innovative and authoritative digital resources selected by scientists and librarians to promote cell biology research and education. Research scientists can link easily to information within 12 major cell biology specialty areas. Educators at all levels have access to categorized cell biology teaching resources, including web sites, instructional tools, course curricula, PowerPoint slides, and more. Research scientists can navigate quickly to resources aimed at providing access to the tools that cell biologists need to make new discoveries, including model organism and genome databases, software, reagents, imaging tools, homepages of research labs in their field, and image and video galleries.

The site is part of ASCB's family of cell biology education resources that also include BioEDUCATE, CBE — Life Sciences Education journal, iBioSeminars, the Image & Video Library, and Community Forums on cell biology topics. CellBASE contains a variety of links to textbooks, images and videos. The site also has links to online groups and social networking tools specifically designed for the cell biology community, including forums, blogs, and wikis. With CellBASE, research scientists, educators, and students have a roadmap to the virtual world of cell biology information resources.

We would like to thank our supporters for their generosity.
