Graham received his B.S. in Chemistry from SUNY Buffalo and his Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry from The Ohio State University working with Patrick Woodward.  He then did a post-doc at the Lujan Neutron Scattering Center at Los Alamos National Lab followed by several years as a staff scientist.  He came to the Canadian Light Source as a Brockhouse Scientist in 2018.  His research is focused on advancing structural analysis using advanced powder diffraction methods.  This includes Rietveld refinements, ab-initio structural solution of extended and molecular solids, and local structure analysis using the pair distribution function.  He is an advocate for probing the structure of a material over several length scales in order to obtain a complete structural understanding.
