Research Isn't Enough Anymore. Now What?
In many teams across Dubai and the UAE, research still isn’t a given.
Sometimes it’s not done at all.
Sometimes it’s done quickly by product managers or founders.
Sometimes designers are expected to focus purely on delivery.
And even when research *does* happen…
It often struggles to influence decisions.
Insights get lost.
Teams move forward without clarity.
So the question isn’t just how to do more research.
It’s what actually makes research matter.
This **[HCD UAE Meetup](https://www.hcd.ae/ "https://www.hcd.ae/")** explores what needs to change.
From **research craft** to **ResearchOps** to **AI**, we’ll unpack the real gap between insight and impact through a live panel discussion. Expect honest perspectives, practical experiences, and an open conversation with the community.
This session is co-hosted with the [Dubai User Experience Research (UXR) community](https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/ "https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/"), bringing together designers, researchers, and product teams in the same room to share perspectives and learn from each other.
Stay tuned as we reveal the panel over the coming weeks.
The session will be hosted by [Jonathan Steingiesser](https://www.steingiesser.design/ "https://www.steingiesser.design/"), who has worked across design, research, and innovation, including as Principal Design Researcher at MYOB in Australia.
If you work in design, research, product, or leadership and have ever wondered why research doesn’t always land, this conversation is for you.

Love's Executioner
Irvin D. Yalom
4.25 stars
42,344 ratings 2,261 reviews
Love's Executioner offers us the humane and extraordinary insight of renowned psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom into the lives of ten of his patients - and through them into the minds of us all
Why was Saul tormented by three unopened letters from Stockholm? What made Thelma spend her whole life raking over a long-past love affair? How did Carlos's macho fantasies help him deal with terminal cancer?
In this engrossing book, Irvin Yalom gives detailed and deeply affecting accounts of his work with these and seven other patients. Deep down, all of them were suffering from the basic human anxieties - isolation, fear of death or freedom, a sense of the meaninglessness of life - that none of us can escape completely. And yet, as the case histories make touchingly clear, it is only by facing such anxieties head on that we can hope to come to terms with them and develop. Throughout, Dr Jalom remains refreshingly frank about his own errors and prejudices; his book provides a rare glimpse into the consulting room of a master therapist.

المرض كاستعارة – سوزان سونتاج
الكتاب يتوفر مطبوعا والكترونيا (يرجى متابعة الرابط للتفاصيل)
المرض هو الجانب المظلم من الحياة. إنه مواطَنَة مرهقة وشاقة، فكل شخص ولد مواطناً في مملكة الأصحاء، وفي الوقت نفسه يُولد مواطناً أيضاً في مملكة المرضى. ومع أننا جميعاً نفضل أن نحمل جواز سفر مملكة العافية، فنحن مجبرون آجلاً أم عاجلاً على الأقل لفترةٍ من الزمن، أن نعد أنفسنا مواطنين في مملكة المرض.
أريد أن أتكلم، ليس عن معنى الرحيل إلى مملكة المرض والعيش هناك، ولكن عن الأوهام العقابية أو العاطفية الملفقة عن المرض، وليس عن الانتقال مكانياً، بل عن نماذج لهذه الأوهام التي أخذت طابعاً أو صفاتٍ قومية.
إن موضوعي ليس المرض نفسه، بل استعمالات المرض كاستعارة. موضوعي هو أن المرض ليس استعارة، وأن أصدق نظرةٍ إلى المرض، وأكثر الطرق صحةً في نظر الشخص المريض لمرضه، هي أن يتطهر منه، وأن يكون أشد الناس مقاومةً للتفكير البلاغي واستعمال الاستعارات. إلا أنه من الصعوبة بمكان النظر إلى السكن في مملكة المرض دون تحيُّزٍ، باستعمال الاستعارات التي وَصَفت المرض وصورته.
إنني أكرس هذا التحقيق لشرح هذه الاستعارات وتفنيدها، وتحرير النظرة إلى المرض منها.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.

PRANIC HEALING® has been taught to doctors, nurses, massage
therapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, shiatsu practitioners, and many others in the healing field. It has allowed them to heal confidently and consistently in the shortest learning time possible. These professionals find PRANIC HEALING® very effective and easy to apply.
Other topics covered in PRANIC HEALING® Level 1:
Energetic anatomy: You will learn to work with the network of chakras, meridians and auras to accelerate the healing processes of your body.
Preventive healing: You will learn to remove the negative energetic patterns of a disease to prevent it from fully manifesting as a physical ailment.
Self-Pranic healing: You will learn to apply these healing techniques to accelerate your own healing.

You'll also learn how to address common problems as migraines and sinusitis.
Additionally, you'll learn to apply distant healing to loved ones who are not present in the room with you.
All PRANIC HEALING® courses are "experiential," which means that you learn by actually performing the techniques and exercises in class - on yourself and those around you. During class, all the principles will be explained thoroughly and you will practice the techniques exhaustively so you will be confident in your ability to produce positive results when you finish the course.
