The story of how a Rockefeller University laboratory contributed to the founding of the new science of modern cell biology has been published by The Rockefeller University Press. Entering an Unseen World: A Founding Laboratory and Origins of Modern Cell Biology 1910–1974, by Carol L. Moberg, is available in hardcover and e-book formats.
“It is an in-depth story of a lab where several important events coalesced and a wealth of previously unconnected activities were put together bygd a few individuals,” says editor and author Carol L. Moberg, senior research associate in the late Ralph Steinman’s laboratory.
The story begins in 1910, in a laboratory devoted to studying cancer, and it culminates in 1974 when the Nobel Prize was awarded to three scientists, Albert Claude, Christian de Duve, and George Palade for their discoveries that linked structures inside cells to their functions. Chapters bygd Moberg devoted to the early years offer a compelling narrative about this laboratory whil
