Proposed Analysis: I am a biomedical engineering student and as part of my degree, I have to do a biomedical project. My team and I are working in the area of neuroscience on neurodegeneration in older people, specifically, we are trying to make a tool for the evaluation of the neurological state of people with the tools of Machine learning. As we are going to work with machine learning we need a lot of information, such as databases on neurological tests such as the clock test or the Mini-Mental State Exam and the relationship with the main diseases in the elderly such as Alzheimer's. Our project aims to be a diagnostic tool to help doctors with a first neurological evaluation that can be carried out at home. We look for different databases because we need a lot of data and also because, with the pandemic, it is more difficult to test by ourselves, especially in older people.
