About
Associate Professor Mali Abdollahian is an academic in the School of Science.
Mali received her Master's in Applied Mathematics and Astronomy and PhD in Statistical Quality Control from the University College Cardiff in the UK. Her research interests are mainly in the area of univariate and multivariate statistical quality control, performance analysis, quality assurance, and statistical modelling, but also include the design of sampling strategies for compliance testing and benchmarking, and performance analysis and quality-control monitoring of public health and environment trends.
Much of Mali's research has involved developing optimal quality-control and quality-assurance procedures for monitoring and improving the quality of products and services in a cost-effective manner. In the last 10 years, she has been developing quality control and performance analysis procedures to monitor and design intervention strategies to reduce the maternal and newborn mortality rates, childhood type I diabetes, childhood obesity, and Type II diabetes. She has been extensively involved in consulting projects and the delivery of short courses to different industries. The refereed publications in the area of her research are listed on Google Scholar.
