She became the Bucher Professor and department chair in 2013.[2] Amenta was co-chair of the Symposium on Computational Geometry in 2006, with Otfried Cheong.[6] References1. ^Department people, Computer Science, UC Davis, retrieved 2015-06-29. 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{citation|title=From pines to pixels: 3-D modeling research by Nina Amenta helps map evolutionary trees and the surface of forests|first=Corinna|last=Fish|journal=UC Davis Magazine|volume=32|issue=2|date=Spring 2015|url=http://ucdavismagazine.ucdavis.edu/issues/sp15/pines_to_pixels.html}}. 3. ^{{citation|title=Curve and Surface Reconstruction: Algorithms with Mathematical Analysis|volume=23|series=Cambridge Monographs on Applied and Computational Mathematics|first=Tamal K.|last=Dey|authorlink=Tamal Dey|publisher=Cambridge University Press|year=2006|isbn=9781139460682|page=77|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=v_OyHkgVnnUC&pg=PA77|quote=The first algorithm for surface reconstruction with proved guarantees was devised by Amenta and Bern}}. 4. ^Graduation date from Amenta's Ph.D. thesis, retrieved 2015-06-29. 5. ^{{mathgenealogy|id=87409}} 6. ^Proceedings of the twenty-second annual symposium on Computational geometry, Association for Computing Machinery, retrieved 2015-06-29.
