The Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology – BIPS is one of the leading epidemiological research institutions in Germany and a member of the Leibniz Association.

The unit has extensive statistical expertise for studies based on the so-called pharmacoepidemiological research database (GePaRD) that has been established at BIPS and on the Bremen Cancer Registry. In particular, the research focuses on strategies to avoid sources of bias such as the target trial approach (bips-institut[dot]de/en/research/cross-departmental-working-groups/working-group-gepard-target-trials-for-causal-inference-gettcausal[dot]html) and methods for dealing with time-dependent and/or unmeasured confounding.

Aufgaben- Develop new statistical methods for secondary data analysis and apply them to GePaRD data
- Develop and prepare statistical analysis plans for target trial emulation in e.g. post-authorization safety studies and conduct the analyses
- Publish and present research results
- Master's degree (or equivalent) in (Bio-)statistics or Mathematics
- Experience in planning of epidemiological studies and/or the analysis of data from statutory health insurances would be desirable
- Programming skills in SAS and R
- Good knowledge of spoken and written English; German would be desirable

Disabled applicants will be given priority conditional on equal professional and personal qualifications. The institute strives to promote its employees' work-life balance and has been certified for its family friendliness (audit "berufundfamilie"). We also offer additional support for international scholars to relocate to Germany through the Welcome Center of the UBremen Research Alliance.
