Researcher biography
Dr. Astrid Rodriguez-Acevedo is a postdoctoral fellow specializing in data analysis and biostatistics. She has experience in various research areas, including genetics, epidemiology, and health economics. In 2022, she joined Monika Jandas' group to focus on investigating the technical aspects of implementing teledermatology and 3D body photography in Australia. In addition to her research work, Dr. Rodriguez-Acevedo is also the founder of Huitaca, a non-profit organization that provides language editing and statistical advice to Latin American female scientists seeking to publish their research in English-written journals.
