Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht (birth name: Taraneh Djavanbakht Samani) is an Iranian-Canadian scientist, philosopher, artist, writer, poet, translator, critic, peer-reviewer, editor and human rights activist. Her works and innovations are in various fields such as sciences, engineering, philosophy, literature, arts, women's movement and human rights. She is a pioneer in giving new perspectives to human life. She has digged down deep with her works and has brought out her
inner strength. Her special lifestyle has created a strong synergy of
dynamism and hope. Being involved in the development of success skills,
she has cultivated a reputation as a pioneer in multidisciplinarity and
has inspired a lot of people across the world through her enthusiasm,
effort and creativity.
She has decided to become a different person since
her childhood in order to refute the false belief that becoming an
expert in different fields is not possible. Over the years of living
abroad, she has devoted her life for her goals and dreams. Having lived
in different continents, she has learned to adapt to new situations, use
time efficiently and develop her talents for multidisciplinary
achievements.
As the president of the World Women Association, she has been engaged to
encourage the (wo)men around the world to use their motivations and
talents to become more productive and successful. The content of this
site is to reveal Taraneh's aim of increasing the human enthusiasm,
self-confidence, knowledge and responsibility on the planet.
Sciences, engineering, philosophy, arts, literature and human rights
are not Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht's hobbies but the fields of her serious
activities. She believes that polymaths must explore the applications of
philosophy in all the sciences to combine them in order to show its
influence in all the fields of knowledge. Her works also reveal her goal of having cultural and
educational activities; giving value to the continual effort in the
multidisciplinary achievements in order to enrich human life. After
completing her studies in several fields, she gives us her numerous
articles, artistic works and ambitious books in English, French,
Russian, German, Azari, Arabic and her mother tongue, Persian.
Over several years, she has worked on different scientific projects and has collaborated with many researchers of universities, hospitals, research institutes and industrial companies of the world. She has innovated in sciences, engineering, philosophy, literature, arts and human rights. She has written scientific and philosophical theories, poems, songs, short stories, novels, plays, scenarios, literary and social criticisms encompassing a wide variety of themes, translated in seven languages, composed music, painted, sculptured and made photography in different styles in order to make sense of and to commemorate the world around her. She has presented her artworks in several exhibitions. Her paintings, sculptures and photographies are in different styles.
She holds two PhD degrees and three master's degrees in sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, cognitive informatics) and philosophy. Her works in sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, biotechnology, nanotechnology, informatics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science), engineering (chemical engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, materials engineering), philosophy, literature, arts and human rights have been published in several languages. Her books in science, philosophy and literature have been published in several languages.
Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht's two philosophy books were published in Canada in 2020 and 2023. Her first philosophy book entitled "Être et Pensée" (Being and Thought)
including her innovative theories was
published in Canada in 2020 (Editors: Serge Robert and Jean-Philippe Beaudin). Her second philosophy book entitled "Nétisme: Un Nouveau Système Philoosphique" including her innovations in philosophy was published in Canada in 2023 (Editors: Jean-Philippe Beaudin and Suzanne Boutin).

Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht received her bachelor's degree (B.Sc.) in chemistry from the Shahid Beheshti University (SBU) in 1996 and went to Paris in 1997 to complete her studies. She earned her first master's degree (master of advanced studies or D.E.A.) in physical chemistry from the Pierre and Marie Curie University (UPMC) in 1998. Her first master's thesis was in physics (optics). Then, she earned her first Ph.D. degree in physical chemistry from the same university (UPMC) in 2002. She carried out her postdoctoral studies in nanotechnology and engineering at Ecole Polytechnique of Montreal in 2011. She received her second master's degree (M.Sc.) in molecular biology (in vitro and in vivo (mice model) studies) from the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) in 2011. After having completed propaedeutic courses in philosophy, Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht did her third master's in philosophy at UQAM in 2013. She received her third master's degree (M.A.) in philosophy from UQAM in 2016. Taraneh Javanbakht explored the thermal stability of multilayer mirrors when exposed to X-ray synchrotron radiation. Her findings on this topic were published in her master's thesis in physics at UPMC. She also explored the stability of antisense oligonucleotides against enzymatic degradation in fibroblasts and monocytes as well as cell lysates. Her fonudings on the stabilization of antisense oligonucleotides against multidrug resistance (mdr1) were published in her Ph.D. thesis in chemistry at UPMC. She also studied the activity of the Cdx transcriptional factors on the promoter of Pax3 gene. Her findings on this topic were published in her master's thesis in molecular biology at UQAM. She invented a new theory in cognitive sciences in opposition to the prototype theory, the demarcator theory, a new model, the model of the tree, a new logic, the tendential logic, the combination of non-classical logics (fuzzy logic, modal logic and tendential logic) on the model of the tree, a new rule, the rule of constraint in cognitive sciences and a new philosophical system, Netism, which were published in her master's thesis in philosophy at UQAM in 2016. She did her second PhD in artificial intelligence (automated decision), programming and cognitive science at UQAM in 2022. Her second PhD thesis was on the modeling and informatics treatment of the inconsistency of epistemic beliefs with the numerical analysis of categories.

She has presented several conferences and seminars in
sciences, philosophy, arts, literature, women's movement and human
rights at the universities of the world.
Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht has proposed DECONSEM, a new concept that means creating original works in all the fields of knowledge. A DECONSEM is neither a CONference nor a SEMinar. It is a unique style of presenting the creative works in several fields during several days. DONCESM is the deconstruction of the concepts of CONference and SEMinar. She presented the first DECONSEM of the world, including her works in sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, nanotechnology and engineering), philosophy, arts, literature, women's movement and human rights, in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Montreal (UdeM) and the Department of Philosophy at the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) in 2015. She presented the second DECONSEM of the world in the Department of Chemistry at UdeM, the Department of Informatics at UQAM, the Department of Chemistry at UQAM in 2017 and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the École de Technologie Supérieure in Montreal (ETS) in 2018. She believes that the ideal situation will occur when the academic researchers who have expertise in different fields will present DECONSEMs during several days. The very ideal situation will occur when DECONSEMs will replace congresses. The polymathy will make the DECONSEMs possible. She believes that Multidisciplinarity and DECONSEMs will make a RENAISSANCE in the lifestyle of human beings and wishes that DECONSEMs will be presented in the future rather than conferences or seminars. Many reviews on Dr. Taraneh Javanbakht's works have been published in the media. She has been interviewed by radios, televisions, news agencies and journals. Several university researchers, writers and artists have written her biography. These manuscripts on her life-work have been published in many journals around the world. She also proposed distanceology as a new branch of philosophy, which was published in her master's thesis in philosophy at the University of Quebec in Montreal in 2016. Distangeology is the study of the distance between philosophy and pure sciences and the rules that help reduce it. Tendential logic is a new logic that she formalized, which was also published in her master's thesis in philosophy at UQAM in 2016. Non classical logics such as tendential logic, fuzzy logic, modal logic, etc can be used in distanceoloy.
