Profile
Hisbel Arochena is a research student within BIOCORE
in the School of Mathematical and Information Sciences,
Coventry University. She recently received her PhD on
the modelling of parameters affecting coverage in the
NHS Breast Cancer Screening Programme, under the supervision
of Prof. Raouf Naguib and Dr Alison Todman.
Prior
to this appointment she was
working on Internet-related
applications in the business
sector. She was also previously
an Associate Lecturer in
the Applied Mathematics Department,
University of Havana, Cuba,
where she undertook research
within the Optimisation and
Operational Research Group
and Oceanography Institute,
Academy of Science of Cuba.
Her work dealt with the mathematical
modelling of tide, storm
surges, greenhouse effect
and other oceanographic processes.
She
has published journal and
conference papers on the
optimisation of bi-dimensional
cutting, as well as on the
greenhouse effect and the
mathematical modelling of
tide.
Her
current research interests
fall within the area of applications
of statistics and optimisation
to medical research.
