In addition, federated data analysis is playing an increasingly important role.

We employ two student helpers to support our work. Our tasks are divers, offering valuable insight into the daily work of a biometrician. The unit speaks German and English.

• Bachelor´s degree in mathematics, statistics, data science, computer science or a related field
• Experience in programming (preferable in R)

Tasks:
