He holds a Ph.D. in International Relations from the Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Germany. In his dissertation, he showed how deliberation in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) impacts upon the design of lending programs. Timon has published on various aspects of the IMF and international financial institutions, including the decision-making processes and the socio-economic consequences of their policy advice. Within GEGI, he is examining the IMF\u2019s role in fighting climate change. More broadly, Timon\u2019s research interests focus on the political economy of international organizations, development and health, using a mixture of methods including regression analysis, text-as-data and expert interviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/gdp\/files\/2022\/07\/download-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/files\/2022\/07\/download-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/files\/2022\/07\/download-189x189.png 189w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/files\/2022\/07\/download-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/files\/2022\/07\/download.png 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 20px) 100vw, 20px\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TimonForster\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@TimonForster<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19363,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/21876"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19363"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/21876\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28315,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/21876\/revisions\/28315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/gdp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
