Graduated and PhD in Mathematical Sciences from the University of Valencia, she carries out her teaching, research, and university management work in a balanced way, with outstanding international projection. She has held several positions of responsibility: she served as Secretary of the Department of Algebra (2005–2008), Secretary of the Faculty of Mathematics in two periods (2009–2011 and 2018–2021), and, since September 2023, she has been serving as Vice-Dean, a position renewed in July 2024, thus beginning her third term in different dean teams. Moreover, she has coordinated the Degree in Mathematics and currently coordinates the first year of the Degree in Mathematics and the Double Degree in Physics–Mathematics, as well as the EntreIguals mentoring program since the 2024–2025 academic year.

Her teaching activity includes subjects in the area of Algebra within the Mathematics program and in various Engineering degrees, both single and double. Internationally, she teaches at the Università degli Studi di Firenze within the Erasmus+ framework (2015–2025), covering undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral courses. She was a visiting professor at Ohio University(2001 and 2002). In the field of teaching innovation, she participates in innovation projects at the University of Valencia and, since 2021, has been co-organizer of the Jornades d’Innovació Docent en Matemàtiques en Educació Superior (Teaching Innovation Days in Higher Education Mathematics).

Her research focuses on finite group theory, representation theory, and character theory. Throughout her research career, she has taken part in 14 competitive R&D&I projects (2001–2027), several of them as principal investigator, with national and regional funding, and has published her findings in high-impact journals in her field. She holds four recognized research periods (sexenios), the most recent granted in 2021.

In 2017, she chaired the organizing committee of the IV Congress of Young Researchers of the Spanish Royal Mathematical Society, has co-organized the biennial international conference Groups in Florence since 2016, and has completed research stays at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and the Università degli Studi di Firenze, supported by postdoctoral fellowships and national and regional programs. She has served on committees and doctoral thesis examination boards in Spain and Italy, has co-supervised one PhD thesis, is currently co-supervising another, and has supervised numerous bachelor’s and master’s theses.

Estudios y experiencia profesional

Licenciada en Física

Máster en Física Avanzada

Doctora en Física

Más de 8 años de experiencia como investigadora postdoctoral en la Universidad de Goettingen (Alemania) y en el CERN (Suiza), el mayor laboratorio de investigación en Física de Altas Energías a nivel mundial, con una beca "CERN Research Fellow". Regresé a Valencia con un proyecto "Junior Leader" de la fundación La Caixa en 2019. Luego fue investigadora Ramón y Cajal (2021-2025) hasta que me estabilicé como Profesora Titular. Participo en varios proyectos de investigación.  

Investigación

- Núm. identificación: ORCID 0000-0003-1113-3645, WoS ID AAQ-7522-2020, SCOPUS 35223818000

- Dos sexenios de investigación reconocidos por la ANECA (1: 2008-2013, 2: 2014-2019)

- Como investigadora del experimento ATLAS (más de 2500 colaboradores) tengo unas 1000 publicaciones, la gran mayoría del primer cuartil. Mi línea de investigación es la física experimental de altas energías, en concreto entender el origen de las masas de las partículas elementales (aquellas ya indivisbles), estudiando las colisiones del LHC. Mi trabajo, en concreto, se centra en el estudio de la interacción del bosón de Higgs, el responsable de la masa de las partículas elementales, con el quark top, la partícula más pesada que se conoce. Este análisis requiere técnicas de Inteligencia Artificial para distinguir la señal y tratamiento estadístico de los datos, con aplicaciones en otros temas de “Big Data” y “Data Science”

- Puestos de responsabilidad en la colaboración científica ATLAS del LHC: Convener of subgroups: Higgs/Top (2021-2023), Modelling of Top Processes (2019-2020), MC Validation (2015-2016), Top Properties (2016-2018), LHC ttH/tH (2017-2021)

- He dirigido 3 tesis doctorales ya defendidas, y en la actualidad estoy dirigiendo otras 3

Dionisio F. Yáñez is Associate Professor at the University of Valencia (UV). He obtained his BA in Mathematics in 2005 and PhD in Applied Mathematics in 2010 from this university. In addition, he has completed two master's degrees: Executive MBA at INEDE Business School (UCV) in 2014 and a master's degree in Research in Specific Didactics (UV) in 2018. Currently, his research focuses on the treatment of signals and images using techniques of multiresolution; analysis of subdivision schemes and their properties; and design of linear and nonlinear interpolants and approximants and their applications. He also works on research in Didactics of Mathematics.

My research focuses on different aspects of modeling under uncertainty, which has been a recurring theme throughout my research career. I have primarily worked on modeling problems in the life sciences, including epidemiology, medicine, and biology. These problems have been addressed using statistical modeling approaches, often incorporating new methodological results. My work has been published mainly in journals classified within Statistics and Probability, Applied Mathematics, and Computer Science.

During the last ten years, my contributions have concentrated mainly on two areas: (a) modeling of omics data and (b) modeling of infectious diseases.
