I did my PhD at University of Science and Research in Iran. My doctoral research focused on branding in social networks with a cognitive science approach. Additionally, I identified the determinants of brand engagement using gamification techniques. In this research, new marketing techniques grounded in cognitive science were introduced to enhance customer trust.
