Name: Diego Raza
Position: Lecturer – Research methodology

University:  Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar
Region: Quito, Ecuador 


My name is Diego Raza and I am a lecturer at Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar in Quito, Ecuador. I teach subjects related to research methodology and help my students with their main thesis. When I was recently doing research for my literature review, I needed a tool to help me find research papers. I found that Iris.ai has higher quality sources in comparison to other tools on the market, and that it has access to papers that are of better academic quality.   

How did Iris.ai help your research?

I was using Iris.ai for my own research in self-efficacy. I began my research by doing a broad exploration of papers in the Explore tool, then I imported the research map into the Focus tool to narrow down the results into a reading list. The tool helped me get an overview of the topic. Thanks to Iris.ai I found useful resources to build the thematic background of my paper. I ended up with around 20 papers that were immensely important and relevant. 

Finally, I want to mention that I use Iris.ai to help my students identify literature that they may have overseen when preparing their main theses. 

The biggest value with using Iris.ai, is how much time it’s saving. It’s doing a part of my work for me.
