Happy Friday! While Huskies across North America enjoyed spring break, life on all of our global campuses continued. In Boston, graduate students dug deep into cell research – from observing white blood cells to poking through the possibilities of peptides. Meanwhile, the deconstruction of Matthews Arena is still underway. And, if you’re curious, take a look at what a class excursion looks like for Huskies studying in London.
