Aaron Cannon is an undergraduate research assistant for the spinal ligament characterization group. His focus is on correlating ligament morphology to its mechanical properties. Aaron is currently applying to medical schools for the entering class of 2012. Aaron married his wife Diane in June of 2008. They currently have two children.

Rachel Bradshaw graduated with her M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from BYU. While a student she was working working on characterizing the constitutive response of the intraspinous ligament using a novel anisotropic small punch technique. She has also helped characterize the performance of a wide-range strain gauge in measuring ligament strains up to 40%. Rachel received her B.S. in Biological Engineering from Utah State University in 2009.Prior to attending BYU she was involved in: genetic diagnostics (autism), alternative energy (bioethanol), biomolecular nanophotonics, drug delivery and biotechnology manufacturing (micro-ELISA arrays).
