The research group "Analysis of Medical Image and Stereology" of the School of Technology and Experimental Sciences of the UJI has won the eighth Scientific Dissemination Prize awarded by the UJI with the collaboration of Banco Santander, through Santander Universidades. This prize acknowledges their ability to communicate the content and value of their scientific research to society.

The research team is coordinated by Amelia Simó and integrated by Irene Epifanio, Joaquín Gual and María Victoria Ibáñez from the Department of Mathematics. It began its activity at the end of the 90s, focused on the application of techniques of the integral geometry of spatial statistics in the treatment of digital and medical images, with applications in the field of ophthalmology, radiotherapy and biomechanics.

They are part of the University Institute of Mathematics and Applications of Castelló and the Institute of New Imaging Technologies of the Universitat Jaume I in Castelló. In the field of dissemination, they participate in activities such as mathematical meetings, conferences on disciplines such as statistics or on the research that they carry out, research dissemination journals or festivals such as Pint of Science.

Currently, they are working on determining the size of children's clothing by applying statistical models and big data techniques. A few years ago, they participated in the project "Promediando formas", an investigation that served to make a model of the average Spanish female figure, by means of three-dimensional scanners that recorded the measurements of more than 10,000 women with the purpose of standardizing the sizes in the textile industry and promoting a real and healthy image of women.

The group has collaborated with entities such as the Provincial Hospital of Castelló and the hospitals La Fe and Doctor Peset Aleixandre in València, as well as the with the Biomechanics Institute of the Universitat Politècnica de València, among others. Likewise, it is related to the Departments of Statistics, Information Technology and Geometry of the Universitat de València, the Mathematics Department of the University of Cantabria and the Thiele Center for Applied Mathematics in Natural Sciences of the University of Aarhus in Denmark.
