Cover: The cover illustrates that in the post-genomics era, the study of molecular and cell biology will remain a fertile research ground in our quest to understand the complexity of life. While a variety of -omics approaches are producing data of enormous
quantity (exemplified here in the background as a microarray pattern), the more traditional molecular and cell biology approaches will continue to play vital roles in translating the information gathered (symbolized by a magnifying scope) into deeper knowledge of how life functions (illustrated as a model cell depicting various cellular processes).
