Personal profile
Research Interests
Cristiano Storni is Associate Professor and senior researcher in Interaction Design. He is the Director of the Interaction Design Centre in the department of Computer Science and Information Systems in UL, is a member of Lero and a senior researcher at the Health Research Institute. His research lies at the intersection of Design (interaction, participatory) and social sciences (ethnography, science and technology studies, particularly Actor Network Theory - ANT) with a general interest in the relationship between technology and people in various domains: health, care and self-care, social innovation, neurodiversity and inclusion, and sustainability. He is currently working on bridging ANT to design practice, developing neuro-divergent affirmative designs and inclusive practices, policies, environments, and technologies, and exploring ways to use new emerging computing paradigms to rethink our relationship and engagement with nature.
Teaching Interests
Cristiano teaches Foundations of Interaction and Experience Design (overviewing user/human-centred design methods), Information society (studying the Mapping of controversies and the relationship between technology and Society) and Applied Interaction Design (exploring participatory approaches to research and design).
Biography
Cristiano holds a PhD in Information Systems and Organisation from the University of Trento (Italy), where he was trained as an ethnographer and studied Science and Technology Studies, and a 5y Laurea in Communication Science, with a focus on Human Computer Interaction, from the University of Siena.
