At a very early age, Luz Rello realized that she was not learning at the same pace as her classmates. Something prevented her from understanding what the teacher wrote on cards that others read easily. Eventually, Luz realized that she was dyslexic. But she did not give up, she learned to live with these difficulties and ended up becoming an expert in linguistics.As an adult, as a researcher, Luz has managed to develop a test that can detect the risk of dyslexia in less than fifteen minutes, which is a real world milestone in the treatment of one of the most common obstacles to children's learning.Luz's story is that of someone who, from a very young age, realized that there were things around her that were not working well, and that perhaps she could do something to change them. So she thought of a solution, looked for teammates to carry it out and started a very important project to contribute to a better world.
