Eric R. Weeks (born 1970 in Downers Grove, Illinois) is an American physicist. He completed his B.Sc. at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in 1992. He obtained a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Texas at Austin in 1997, working under Harry Swinney, and later completed post-doctoral research with David Weitz and Arjun Yodh at Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania. He is currently a full professor at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia (as of September 2010).〔() Eric Weeks' Information Page at Emory University〕 He is most well known for his work on various aspects of the jamming (physics) phenomenon, specifically in colloidal glasses〔"Direct visualization of ageing in colloidal glasses" RE Courtland and ER Weeks, J Phys: Cond Mat 15, S359-S365 (2003)〕〔"Short and long range correlated motion observed in colloidal glasses and liquids" ER Weeks, JC Crocker, DA Weitz, J. Phys.: Cond. Mat. 19, 205131 (2007)〕 and colloidal supercooled liquids,〔"Three-dimensional direct imaging of structural relaxation near the colloidal glass transition" ER Weeks, JC Crocker, AC Levitt, A Schofield, and DA Weitz, Science 287, 627 (2000).〕〔"Properties of cage rearrangements observed near the colloidal glass transition" ER Weeks and DA Weitz, Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 095704 (2002).〕 although his research interests extend broadly into other types of complex fluids, as well as microrheology〔"Two-particle microrheology of quasi-2D viscous systems" V Prasad, SA Koehler, ER Weeks, Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 176001 (2006)〕〔"Two-point microrheology of inhomogeneous soft materials" JC Crocker, MT Valentine, ER Weeks, T Gisler, PD Kaplan, AG Yodh, and DA Weitz, Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 888 (2000).〕 and granular materials. == External links == *(Eric R.
