Index over multiple cell arrays with cellfun

Is it possible to index over multiple cell arrays with cellfun? For example, I have two cell arrays of the same size C and D. I would like perform an operation that uses a cell from each array.

Yes, just feed them into cellfun

cellfun(@(x,y)x+y,Cell1,Cell2); %if you need it for your function: ,'uni', false)

Excellent! Thank you.

or slightly more compact:

I was just trying to demonstrate how it would take in two different cells. The OP didn't ask for the operation between them.
