# Summary / Abstract (cell-summary)
## When to trigger
- Significance, framing, and structure are settled (do this late).
- The abstract reads like a method recap with no mechanism or result.
- It exceeds ~150 words, uses subheadings, or is dense with acronyms.
- It states *that* something happens but never *how* (no mechanism).
## What Cell calls it
Cell's abstract is the **Summary**: a **single, unstructured paragraph** (no subheadings, no citations) of roughly **≤150 words**, written for a broad life-sciences readership — not your subfield. It must convey the **complete story**: the question, the mechanism, and why it matters, with quantification.
## Five-move structure (no labels in the text)
