Fred Godtliebsen

Bio

Fred Godtliebsen received his MSc and PhD degrees in statistics from the Norwegian Institute of Technology (NTH), Trondheim, in 1985 and 1989, respectively. He worked at NTH as an associate professor until 1994 and since then he has worked at University of Tromsø where he has been a professor of statistics since 1996. Previously, he has had adjunct positions at the Norwegian Centre for Telemedicine and the Norwegian Polar Institute. As of April 2016 he holds a Professor 2 position in statistics at the Norwegian Centre for E-health Research. Godtliebsen has supervised 10 PhD students and published more than 100 papers in international journals. He has been one of the group leaders in Tromsø Telemedicine Laboratory, a former centre for research based innovation financed by the Norwegian Research Council. Since 2009, Godtliebsen has been vice dean for research at Faculty of Science and Technology at UiT The Arctic University of Norway. His research interests include smoothing methods, scale-space analysis, pattern recognition, and image processing.
