 Although cell biologists actively courted biochemists and to some degree biophysicists to join their new discipline, these efforts largely failed. The most enduring connections were with molecular biology, which was established as a new discipline in the same period (see the entry on  molecular biology).  While molecular biology began with a focus on bacterial phage (viruses that infect bacteria) and cell biology with eukaryotic cells from mammals and plants, by the 1970s each discipline had broadened its focus and soon many cell biologists were adopting a molecular approach to cell structure and function. (A continuing point of difference between cell biology and molecular biology is that cell biology placed high value on linking chemical and molecular processes to cell structure; see Matlin 2016). Academic departments began to include both cell and molecular in their names. In November 1989 the American Society for Cell Biology created a new journal, Cell Regulation, but with its third volume in January 1992, the name was changed to Molecular Biology of the Cell. Although there are textbooks that reference just cell biology in their title, several of the most prominent textbooks feature both cell and molecular. These include Alberts’ Molecular Biology of the Cell (Alberts, Johnson, Lewis et al. 2015) , Cooper and Hausman’s The Cell: A Molecular Approach (2007), and Iwasa and Marshall’s Karp’s Cell and Molecular Biology (2016). The first edition of Alberts’ Molecular Biology of the Cell (Alberts, Bray, Lewis et al. 1983) was modeled in part on Watson’s Molecular Biology of the Gene (1976) and included Watson as a co-editor. Alberts attributes the vision of integrating cell and molecular biology to Watson (see interview with Alberts in the Oral History Collection at Cold Springs Harbor Laboratory linked in  Other Internet Resources below)
