Abstract: Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching method which has been considered highly effective
in global medical education. It uses selected clinic problems as the core elements. By raising and discussing these
problems, students acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to complete the course. More importantly, they can
improve their abilities to analyze and solve problems and develop the habit of lifelong learning. In this paper, we
introduced a new multiple PBL teaching model for Medical Cell Biology curriculum, which incorporates the features
of various models, such as clinical case model, micro-case model and central problem model. This paper has
discussed and explored PBL from different aspects, including the construction of teaching frame, the compilation
of case-based textbooks, the formulation of class teaching strategy and the evaluation of teaching quality. It aims to
provide a novel idea for PBL study and also the improvement of Medical Cell Biology teaching.
