In Research Updates, I reflect on the articles I’ve read, my thoughts on various research topics, and the process behind my own work. Whether it’s a new idea or reflections on books and academic papers, this section explores the intellectual journey behind my research and development.
It’s been over a month since my last post, and I’ve been caught up in a creative project that’s filling my days and notebook with new perspectives. Those following my recent updates might’ve noticed a shift—thoughts on system dynamics, feedback loops, and cognitive clarity, like my take on The Art of Thinking Clearly. This project […]

The review titled Innovation System Policy Analysis presents a comprehensive analysis of how feedback mechanisms, policy interventions, and computational modeling shape innovation ecosystems. The paper categorizes applications of system dynamics into key areas, primarily R&D policy, innovation diffusion, science and technology policies, and regional innovation clusters. Each of these areas highlights the role of feedback

I can talk about this book forever. The Hidden Connections isn’t just a book—it’s a way of seeing the world that feels both deeply intuitive and profoundly structured. This is why I was drawn to systems thinking in the first place. The realization that nothing exists in isolation, that everything—biological, technological, social—is part of a

There’s something satisfying about finding a study that mirrors questions you’ve been asking yourself. I came across A System Dynamics Approach to Modelling Eco-Innovation Drivers in Companies by Carlos F. A. Arranz, while looking into system dynamics applications as a part of the research for a project, and it immediately caught my attention. Even though
A few years ago, during my master’s studies in Technology Foresight at Amirkabir University, I took a course on forecasting methods. It wasn’t something I had deliberately chosen; it was a requirement, filled with time-series models, regression analyses, and probability distributions. The models were precise, the equations elegant, but something always felt missing. Reading Superforecasting

Some time ago, I read The Art of Thinking Clearly, a book that laid out a broad spectrum of cognitive biases, offering quick and accessible insights into human irrationality. It was like flipping through a catalog of common thinking errors. But when I picked up Thinking, Fast and Slow, it felt like stepping into the
The first time I came across The Art of Thinking Clearly was when a well-known sports news anchor in my country (Adel Ferdosipour) translated it into Persian. It was widely promoted on social media, and a lot of people were talking about it. But I never read the translation—and in hindsight, I’m glad I didn’t.

There’s something fascinating about the way AI is reshaping B2B digital platforms. It’s not just about automation or efficiency anymore—it’s about sustainability, adaptability, and the way businesses create long-term value. The more I work on AI applications in project management, the more I see how these same principles apply across industries, influencing how businesses operate,

This reflection is inspired by the article “Coworking Spaces and Collaborative Practices” by Dr. Stefan Haefliger, published in Organization (2022). The study dives into the subtle, often overlooked mechanisms that make coworking spaces fertile ground for collaboration and innovation. The full article is accessible here. It’s fascinating how certain spaces become catalysts for creativity. Reading
