分子细胞生物学计划的学生和教职员工参与了对许多基本细胞过程及其控制机制的广泛研究。目前正在研究的主题包括：基因表达，转录机制和组织特异性转录调控，参与细胞增殖的分子机制，细胞骨架，运动性和趋化性，分子进出细胞的途径，受体配体相互作用涉及调节细胞生长和细胞表型，信号转导分子和途径，脂质代谢，包括细胞外基质在内的超分子结构的组装，酶催化和抑制的机制以及发病机理。结合这些研究计划的共同主题是希望以尽可能高的分子分辨率水平了解基本的细胞功能。分子细胞生物学计划的学生和教职员工参与了许多有关许多基本细胞过程及其控制
Students and faculty in the Program in Molecular Cell Biology are involved in a wide array of investigations into many fundamental cell processes and the mechanisms that control them. Among the subjects currently under investigation are: gene expression, mechanisms of transcription and tissue-specific transcription regulation, molecular mechanisms involved in cell proliferation, cell cytoskeleton, motility and chemotaxis, pathways for the trafficking of molecules into and out of cells, receptor-ligand interactions involved in regulation of cell growth and cell phenotype, signal transduction molecules and pathways, lipid metabolism, assembly of supramolecular structures including extracellular matrix, and mechanisms of enzyme catalysis and inhibition, and mechanisms of pathogenesis. A common theme uniting these research programs is the desire to understand essential cellular functions at the highest possible level of molecular resolution. tudents and faculty in the Program in Molecular Cell Biology are involved in a wide array of investigations into many fundamental cell processes and the mechanisms that control them.
