Team Lead Dr. Jan Dutton

The Colby College team is led by Colby alumnus and meteorologist Jan Dutton and advised by Assistant Professor of Mathematics Matt Jones. We are a team of Colby College students studying mathematics, data science, physics, and chemistry. Our goal is to use historical data and statistical models to improve predictions for joint-outcome climate markets. As students, we have experience collaborating on quantitative modelling projects in school and externally, such as our recent participation in the COMAP ICM contest. With guidance from advisors experienced in weather forecasting and network science, we hope to contribute to CRUCIAL’s prediction market forecasting approach.
