Ian Graham studied Physics at undergraduate level, researching models of epidemics on disordered networks for his master's dissertation. He then moved to the field of Biological Physics, modelling the chemotaxis network of E. Coli for his doctorate. At Decision Technology, Ian is making good use of his statistical and modelling skills by making predictions of Association Football matches. He researches specific questions for the London Times' Fink Tank column, and also works on making accurate, player-level forecasts for domestic, European and international matches.
