Biography
Violeta Monasterio received the MSc in Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Zaragoza, Spain, in 2005. In 2006 she started her PhD studies in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Zaragoza under the supervision of Prof. Juan Pablo Martínez. Her PhD studies aimed at developing signal processing techniques applied to the electrocardiogram with the purpose of improving the prognostic value of T-wave alternans. In 2009 she conducted a 3-month research stay at the Laboratory for Computational Physiology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). In 2010 and 2011 she also worked as a part-time lecturer in the Department of Electronic Engineering and Communications of the University of Zaragoza.
After finishing her PhD, she moved to the University of Oxford where she held a postdoctoral research position (2011-2012) at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering under the supervision of Prof. Gari Clifford. From 2012 to 2013 she worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Biomedical Research Networking Center in Bioengineering, Biomaterials and Nanomedicine (CIBER-BBN) and also as a part-time lecturer in the Department of Computer Science of the University of Zaragoza.
In 2013 she moved to Universidad San Jorge, Zaragoza, Spain, where she is currently an Assistant Professor (Profesora Contratada Doctora) at the School of Architecture and Technology. Her research interests are focused on the application of computational techniques for cellular electrical modelling and for the processing of biomedical signals.
