About
María-Luisa Martín-Ruiz is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and neurodevelopmental healthcare. Her work centers on developing intelligent robotic assistants and smart-home environments to support children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), particularly in homework and therapy contexts. Her major contributions include the design and assessment of "Atent@," a robotic assistant for children with ADHD, and the creation of a user-centered methodology for pervasive unsupervised occupational therapy. She has also explored the integration of large language models like ChatGPT and Claude to enhance ADHD therapy, innovating treatment paradigms. With over 170 citations across her most-cited works, her 2020 study on smart-home environments for homework activities (44 citations) and her 2021 assessment of robotic assistants for ADHD (42 citations) are particularly influential. Her literature review on robotic technologies in ADHD care (35 citations) has become a foundational reference in the field. Martín-Ruiz’s work is notable for its practical, user-centered approach, directly translating cutting-edge AI and robotics into tools that improve daily life and therapeutic outcomes for vulnerable children.
