The Problems Book by Tim Hunt
The Problems Book helps students appreciate the ways in which experiments and simple calculations can lead to an understanding of how cells work. This is accomplished by introducing the experimental foundation of cell and molecular biology. Each chapter reviews key terms, tests for understanding basic concepts and poses research-based problems. This book is designed to correspond with the first 20 chapters of Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition
Tim Hunt received his PhD in biochemistry from Cambridge University, where he supervised undergraduates in cell biology for more than 20 years. He spent many summers in the late 1970s and early 1980s teaching and researching at the MBL, Woods Hole, Massachusetts. In 1990, he moved to Cancer Research UK, where he worked on the control of the cell cycle. He retired from active research in 2011, and since 2016 has been at OIST in Japan. He is a Fellow of The Royal Society of London and a foreign associate of the US National Academy of Sciences. In recognition of his contribution to the “Discovery of key regulators of the cell cycle,” he received a share of the 2001 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. John Wilson received his PhD from the California Institute of Technology and did his postdoctoral work at Stanford University. He retired in 2015 as Distinguished Emeritus Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Baylor College of Medicine, where he worked on genetic recombination, genome stability, and gene therapy. He taught medical and graduate students for many years, co-authored books on immunology, molecular biology, and biochemistry, and received numerous teaching honors, including the Distinguished Faculty and Robertson Presidential Awards for excellence in education.
