Wash U is super strong in Bio and there is a tight relationship between the med school and undergrads, especially for research which is first rate. I have visited NU twice and know Wash U very well (St. Louis native, lots of friends went there, one got PhD in Bio there and now teaches at Kansas U med school) and I would give a strong edge to Wash U here, especially for research opportunities for undergrads.
