Cell biology explains how a single membrane-bound compartment manages to hold itself together, move, communicate and divide. This collection works through the architecture of the eukaryotic cell: the plasma membrane and what crosses it, the organelles that generate and spend energy, the cytoskeleton, the machinery that copies and repairs the genome, the cell cycle, programmed cell death and the signalling cascades that decide whether a cell grows or stops. Nano College takes the standard textbook for this course and reorganises it into short, self-contained pieces you can finish one at a time, keeping the ground the textbook covers and the rigour it insists on. Work through it and you can read a cell the way a technician reads an instrument: as a set of compartments, gradients and control loops whose behaviour follows from their structure.
