After
graduation from the University of Havana in 1991 I started to work as
researcher/programmer at the Center for Medical Biophysics, in Santiago
de Cuba. I took part in the development of the first Cuban MRI scanner:
GiroImag-01. I was responsible for the signal processing and image
processing modules.
From 1992 to 2006 I was at
the Computer Science Dept., University of Oriente, Santiago de Cuba,
with small interruptions. I taught Logic, Discrete Mathematics, and
Algorithms Analysis and Design, among other undergraduate subjects.
In 2003 I completed a Ph.D. in Computational Group Theory, under the
supervision of Dr. Miguel A. Borges-Trenard, and I served for a short
time as vice-dean for Research and Graduate Studies of the Faculty of
Mathematics and Computer Science.
At
the beginning of 2006 I moved to the Center for Neuroscience, Image and
Signal Processing, at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University
of Oriente, where I was the head of the Computer Vision Research Group
until the end of 2007. At
this moment I am undertaking a second Ph.D. at the University of
Newcastle, Australia, in Graph Theory, under the supervision of
Prof. Mirka Miller
