Happy Friday, Huskies! This week, find College of Engineering students working hard to build an off-road vehicle as members of Northeastern’s Baja SAE club. Across the pond, check out scenes from Northeastern London’s Summer School Program for prospective college students. And researchers remain hard at work, studying how toxins like nitrofurazone effect E.coli survival.

Schoenstedt is adding plasmids, circular pieces of dan, into generic baterica cells to see if the bacteria will survive at different temperatures. This will show if different mutation either increase or decrease bacterial survival.
