She investigates algorithmic aspects of digital geometry processing, focusing on several fundamental problems of mesh manipulation and editing. Her recent research addresses algorithms for mesh parameterization, processing of developable surfaces, mesh editing, reconstruction, and shape analysis. Her work on these topics had been published at top venues, including SIGGRAPH, EuroGraphics, and the Symposium on Geometry Processing. She co-authored several parameterization methods, including ABF/ABF++, which are used in popular 3D modelers including Blender, Maya, and Catia. She received her PhD from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1999. Prior to moving to UBC in 2003, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and an assistant professor at Technion - Israel Institute of Technology.
