Cell and molecular Biology have made tremendous strides over time. Inputs from physical scientists especially in the area of structural biology has added a great deal of information to our knowledge base of interrelationship between structure and function. Structure can be manipulated to modulate a function or create a new function. Today the nature code for man, disease causing parasires, arabidopsis and rice are already accessible. In today's post genomic era proteomes are well analysed thanks to the advent of several kinds of massspectrometers. However, inspite of these advances we have only partial understanding of complex processes like cell growth, cell cycle, cell proliferation, cell differentiation inter- and intra-cellular trafficking and apoptosis. In organismic level growth development and adaptation of organisms to their environment are not well understood. The International Congress on Cellular and Molecular Biology will focus on life processes that are least understood.
