About Blake: Blake
graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara in
2006. He spent two years in Paul Hansma's lab studying the
fracture
mechanics of trabecular bone. At Michigan, he has focused on
adapting
and applying Atomic Force Microscopy to biological systems. He is
currently looking at the properties of supported lipid bilayers and
bone.
Outside of the lab, Blake splits his free time ballroom dance and
photography.
