The Department of Cell Biology is one of eight Joint Health
Science departments in the UAB Schools of Medicine and Dentistry. As of 2002, the Department has 20
primary faculty members. The major
goals of our Department are to sustain our excellence in research and graduate
training, as well as to provide outstanding professional teaching to medical,
dental and optometry students.
