Her research experience has two components based mainly on the time she was
studying and working in Cuba, and the present time at the University of
Michigan. Her M.S ‘s dissertation work at the University of Havana, involved the
study of the free convection analysis in liquids by mean holographic
interferometry in real time. Later on, she joined the Cuban Neuroscience Center
as an associate researcher. She was researching at this institute in topics
related to the solution of the electroencephalographic direct/inverse problems.

The second component is associated to her graduate studies at the University of
Michigan. Currently, she do research on computational methods for biomechanics,
with a particular interest in the human eye, including constitutive modeling of
the cornea and computational simulation of novel surgical procedures.

Delia Cabrera Fernández was born and raised in Havana, Cuba. She graduated from
University of Havana in 1991 with a degree in Physics. After completing BS in
Physics at the University of Havana, followed by a MS in
the same field, she started to work as an associate researcher at the Cuban
Neuroscience Center (1991-1996). Currently, she is a Doctoral Candidate of the
Applied Physics program at the University of Michigan. Here she became involved
in research regarding medical applications of ultrafast laser technology, with a
particular interest in the human eye, including constitutive modeling of the
cornea and computational simulation of novel
surgical procedures.
During two years she was a teaching assistant at the Physics Department,
University of Michigan, so this activity gave her the opportunity to gain some
experience supervising undergraduate students in the science's field. On the
other hand, she was involved in planning the Pipeline Summer Program at the
Dental School. This program was designed to prepare the students to be
successful on the Dental Admission Test (DAT) and increase their understanding
of career options within dentistry. The program was mainly oriented to Junior
and Senior students from a disadvantaged background. She was also in the
committee that formed a chapter of the Association of Women in Science (AWIS) at
the University of Michigan. In addition, she also works as a Partner Associate
of the Pathways to Student Success and Excellence (POSSE) program at The
University of Michigan.
