Die Anwendung mathematisch-statistischer bzw. biometrischer Methoden bei der Abw?gung von Chancen und Risiken von Therapien in der Medizin stehen seit vielen Jahren im Zentrum der Forschungst?tigkeit von Prof. Jürgen Timm. Bereits vor der Gründung des Kompetenzzentrums war er als planender und auswertender Biometriker in zahlreichen klinischen Studien und biomedizinischen Projekten t?tig. Nach der Gründung des KKSB intensivierte er diese Forschungsrichtung. Die medizinischen Themenfelder seiner T?tigkeit (in den letzten 125 Studien) umfassen ein breites Spektrum aus Schmerztherapie, Arbeitsmedizin, Augenheilkunde, Chirurgie, Gyn?kologie, Haut- und Geschlechtskrankheiten, Hygiene und Umweltmedizin, Infektiologie, Intensivmedizin, Innere Medizin, Kinder- und Jugendmedizin, Labormedizin, Mikrobiologie, Mund-Kiefer-Gesichtschirurgie, Onkologie, Orthop?die, Pfegewissenschaften, Psychiatrie,  Radiologie, bildgebende Verfahren, Nuklearmedizin und Urologie. Zusammen mit Frau Prof. Pigeot hat er 2006 den Masterstudiengang ?Medical Biometry/Biostatistics“ an der Universit?t Bremen gegründet und seitdem darin gelehrt.

The list of publications is currently being revised.
