Care to share

Project Overview:

Professor van Aalten’s primary research explores the biological mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration (ND), and this engagement project aims to create a care package for ND patients. Through this project, Professor van Aalten will promote the use of interactive board games to facilitate informal relationships between researchers and the public. During board game sessions, round-table discussions will take place between the participating public, and researchers and health professionals. These discussions will be used as a basis for producing comprehensive ND community guidance and the care packages themselves. Before distribution to ND patients, the care packages will also be photographed and used as the basis for public exhibitions.
