Summarized CV. Anabel Forte Deltell was born in Yecla, Murcia, in 1982. She graduated in Mathematics (2005) and Statistics (2006) from the University of Valencia. Anabel earned her Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Valencia in February 2011 under the supervision of Susie Bayarri and Gonzalo García-Donato with a thesis titled 'Objective Bayesian Criteria for Variable Selection.' During her doctoral period, she visited the Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute (SAMSI) in the Research Triangle, Durham, North Carolina, USA (2009), and the Statistical Lab of the University of Cambridge in the UK (2010). After completing her Ph.D., Anabel worked in the Economics department of the University Jaume I (Castellón) as a postdoctoral researcher for three years. During this time, she collaborated on various projects applying statistical methods to economic and socio-political data. In September 2014, she returned to the University of Valencia as an assistant professor in the Department of Statistics and Operations Research. Since 2020, Anabel has held the position of Associate Professor (Profesora Titular) in the same department. Her main research lines focus on: 1. Uncertainty quantification. Bayesian model selection. 2. Hierarchical Bayesian models for highly structured data. Under these research lines, Anabel has worked in diverse fields such as health, agriculture, economics, finance, and biology, collaborating with international research teams in Spain, France, and Australia. Anabel has published a total of 39 JCR articles since 2009, including 15 in the first quartile Q1, accumulating 661 citations with an h-index of 15 according to Web of Science (WoS) or 1357 citations with an h-index of 19 according to Google Scholar. She has co-supervised 2 Ph.D. theses: 1. Sequential Monte Carlo methods in Bayesian joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event data, Danilo Alvares (jointly with Carmen Armero). 2. Training and detraining in the elderly: Changes in physical and mental function after two years of EFAM-UV, Ana Cordellat (jointly with Cristina Blasco). Additionally, she has published 7 book chapters, served as an editor for 3 scientific books, and participated in 19 competitively funded projects by public entities since 2009, leading 3 of them. Regarding transfer activities, since 2017 Anabel has held a contract with the University of Adelaide (Australia) to collaborate on data analysis related to the Australian grain industry and has worked as a consultant for various agriculture-related companies. Furthermore, Anabel engages in outreach through her blog 'BayesAna: Estadística casi por todas partes,' which won the 2021 20Blogs award for the best science blog. She has authored a book titled '¿Cómo sobrevivir a la incertidumbre?' (NextDoor Publishers) and has collaborated on various radio programs, podcasts, and numerous outreach talks at schools and national events. Currently, Anabel coordinates the StatWars project initiated by the National Network of Biostatistics, funded by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT). Anabel served as an Associate Editor for the Biometrics journal from 2019 to 2023 and is currently the Editor-in-Chief of the BEIO outreach journal of the Spanish Society of Statistics and Operations Research. Since 2022, Anabel has been the director of the Gender Gap Chair signed between the University of Valencia and the Generalitat Valenciana, promoted and funded by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Commerce, and Tourism..
