Before moving to Leipzig, I was leading an Emmy Noether group at the Department of Statistics of the University of Munich (2002 to 2007). I was postdoc at Oxford Unversity (2000-2001) and at GSF (1999). I also worked at Siemens Corporate Technology (ZT IK4, 1998-1999). I completed my Ph.D. thesis in December 1997, developing "Maximum likelihood methods in molecular phylogenetics" at the Biology Department of the University of Munich. In 1996 I spent a term as visiting graduate student at the University of Cambridge. In my diploma thesis (1994) at the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Munich I worked on general relativity.
I am best reached by email (strimmer@uni-leipzig.de) but please note that I may not be able to answer immediately. For other contact details see my IMISE page.
Since February 2010 I am associate editor for AMB where I am handling submissions related to statistical bioinformatics.
