Welcome to the Halloween episode and happy ADHD awareness month! Now, don’t get spooked by the demon voice and join us to find out how VR could be used for the diagnosis of childhood ADHD. Giuliano and Katja interview Liya Merzon and learn it's all about keeping your eye on where the dragon tells you. Liya Merzon is a psychologist and I'm doing my PhD at the Translational Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at Aalto University. In my research, I'm applying computational modelling and machine learning to improve the diagnostics of ADHD in children. In my studies, I've been always fascinated by how applied mathematics could be combined with psychological knowledge to help us understand the human mind.
