Abstract
This presentation is aimed at giving some background information on molecular biology, thus serving as an introduction to the symposium on Molecular Biorheology held during the sixth International Congress of Biorheology in Vancouver. The papers presented at this Symposium indicate that the use of molecular biological techniques allows the understanding of normal and abnormal rheological properties of cells and organs at the molecular level. It is hoped that these examples will provide an impetus for us to open new frontiers of research in biorheology by taking advantage of the powerful tools developed from recent advances in molecular biology.
