Abstract: With advancement of the national strategy for information technology-based education, the teaching remodeling assisted by information technology has become an inevitable trend. The Department of Cell Biology at the Army Medical University developed a mutual interaction tool with We-chat technology named AMU cloud platform which provides service for information sharing and online discussion. This article introduces the design, function and application of the platform in the teaching of medical cell biology. The teaching effects are evaluated by questionnaire survey, score of examination and faculty's interview. The results showed that all teachers and 90.1%(272/302) students were satisfied with the teaching effect of implemented on the platform, the excellent (with score of examination over 75) rate reaches 78.1% (236/302).The development and application of AMU cloud teaching platform effectively assisted the teaching of medical cell biology, and provides a reference for the design of information-based teaching of other courses in medical colleges and universities.

Key words: Medical cell biology, Information technology-based teaching, Cloud platform
