The project was developed by Rosa Bosch and Gemma Español of the Research group in Psychiatry, Mental Health and Addictions of VHIR and Dr. Miquel Casas, head of the same group. Researchers from the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute and the UAB have also participated.According to its creators, one of the causes of the high frequency of school failure in our country is the difficulty in detecting neurodevelopmental disorders. In fact, less than 12% of students who need it receive the correct diagnosis. Currently there are no efficient instruments that allow early detection of these alterations. The PowerLearn platform uses diagnostic-therapeutic algorithms that allow early detections of these disorders and proposes lines of action to improve school performance. It is an efficient, attractive and low cost application that can be easily applied and serve to improve school performance.The prize awarded consists of a cash prize of 2.500 euros and a 6-month stay in the Eureka building of the http://www.uab.cat/web/parc-de-recerca-1345468452273.html Parc de Recerca UAB.The Generation of Ideas Programme is organized annually by the Parc de Recerca UAB with the aim of promoting the entrepreneurial spirit and the culture of innovation, encouraging the ideas of researchers and doctoral students from all scientific fields.
