Helena Kronby's PhD research explores participatory design in the context of dementia care, combining design research with a science and technology studies perspective. She employs participatory design methods to engage care professionals and residents in Danish nursing homes, aiming to co-explore and make visible the relational and social expertise embedded in care practices. Her work emphasizes the role of time, particularly how participatory design activities can be adapted to fit the busy and dynamic rhythms of dementia care, allowing participants to engage meaningfully without undue burden. Ultimately, her project seeks to highlight and valorize social care alongside clinical tasks by developing participatory design approaches sensitive to context, relationships, and time constraints.
