Molecular Biology of the Cell — 4th Edition (2002)

Bruce Alberts et al. · Garland · NCBI Bookshelf · free full text

Older edition but FULLY FREE on NCBI Bookshelf. ~80% of content still applies; great for searchable reference when you don't have access to the 7e PDF.

Essential Cell Biology — 6th Edition (2024)

Bruce Alberts · Karen Hopkin et al. · W.W. Norton

Slimmer Alberts for first-pass overview. Less detail than MBoC but covers the same topic order — useful for rapid review nights before exams.

Lab technique videos (Northam's lab block)

Johnson's research area (cell junctions)
