Thorsten-Ingo Dickhaus is a Professor of Mathematical Statistics at the Institute for Statistics, Faculty of Mathematics, University of Bremen. He holds a PhD in Natural Sciences (Mathematics) from Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf (2008) and has held academic positions at Humboldt-University Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin, and the Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics.

• Education: Diploma in Technomathematics (FH Aachen, 2003), Master of Science (Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, 2005), Dr. rer. nat. (Düsseldorf, 2008)

His research focuses on multiple testing methodologies, particularly false discovery rate control and resampling techniques, with applications in life sciences. He also investigates asymptotic statistics, nonparametric test theory, and computational statistics. Key application areas include statistical genetics, neuroeconomics, and biomedical data analysis.

He has been awarded multiple research grants from the German Research Foundation (DFG) for projects on multi-stage studies, behavioral genetics, and dependency structures in multiple hypothesis testing. His editorial roles include Executive Editor for the Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference and Associate Editor for the Biometrical Journal and Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics.

Thorsten Dickhaus has organized conferences like the 12th International Conference on Multiple Comparison Procedures (MCP 2022 Bremen) and the Spring School 2014 of Research Unit FOR 1735. He is involved in professional societies including the Bernoulli Society and the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.
