Rackham students Elisabeth Ashman and Nike Bharucha, both in the
department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology,
prepare to harvest E. coli bacteria cells yesterday. The cells will
undergo a process to separate their two membranes. By looking at
proteins specific to the outer layer, the researchers hope to aid
in the study of neurodegenerative diseases. (MIKE
