CHRONIC: How Understanding Your Pain Can Change Your Pain

Danna Krouham's thesis, Chronic: How Understanding Your Pain Can Change Your Pain, is an in-depth analysis of the complexity of the chronic pain system. While researching the intricacy of how chronic pain in the United States is addressed, Danna decided to zero in on uncovering the biopsychosocial model of pain. This body of thesis work proposes solutions to help patients understand their own experiences. "By better understanding their pain, they can actually change their pain. By designing a suite of tools and experiences with a unified biopsychosocial approach, Danna aims to help people understand their pain and reclaim control over their minds, bodies, and souls. This thesis is meant to serve as a learning experience by planting a seed in the reader's mind into unfolding the power the pained have over their pain.

Weighted: Designing Towards Fat Liberation

Margarita Zulueta’s thesis, Weighted: Designing Towards Fat Liberation, investigates how anti-fat bias affects fat-identifying women through the lens of design.

Anti-Fat bias is normalized and affects the 1.9 billion adults who are considered to fall within this group. Having experienced the pain of anti-fat bias in her own life due to falling within the small-fat to mid-fat range, Margarita explores and creates products of design to create structures that move towards fat liberation.
