Institute of Medical Biometry and Statistics (IMBI)

„Medical Data Science“ combines a variety of topics and methods from medical informatics and data processing.

Our main research interests in the team Medical Data Science/Medical Informatics are:

• Medical documentation
• Medical terminology for machine processing
• Architecture of classification-, terminology- and ontology systems
• computer-aided learning modules and methods

In this highly interdisciplinary and international field we are working hand in hand with scientists from biology, medicine, informatics, analytical philosophy, linguistics, education science and biometry. We deal with the processing of medicine-related data, information and knowledge. We use information technology methods in order to support patient care, research and education.
