My Mission

I see the integration of qualitative and quantitative knowledge as the main goal for a better integral understanding of human nature as it is and it can be. This includes trajectories of change and harmony.

My History

My personal, professional and research history has gone through different phases of responding to the call of a mission I mentioned. This is mainly due to some epistemic curiosity about others and myself. The wonder of what we are, the surprise of our human conditions, this is has been driving the phases of my journey. At some point I should write about the stages, enthusiam and challenges.

Recent Research & Presentations (2025–2026)

Papers in Progress

Orsucci, F. & Zimatore, G. — Coordination Balancing Algorithm: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Complexity Assessment. Submitted to Entropy, 2025. This paper introduces the Coordination Balancing Algorithm (CBA) as a framework for quantifying dynamic balance and complexity in biological and cognitive systems, with applications in clinical and neuroscientific contexts.

Orsucci, F., Zimatore, G., Baines, S. & Høgenhaug, H.H. — Dynamical Disorders: A Phenotypic Framework for Complex Emotional Needs. Manuscript under review, 2025. This work proposes four dynamical phenotypes — Hypervigilant, Collapsed, Chaotic, and Balanced — as clinically actionable characterisations of psychological states based on coordination dynamics theory.

Conference Presentations — SPR Osaka 2026

Orsucci, F. et al. — IDEAS: Delivering a Complexity-Based Treatment Programme for Young People with Complex Emotional Needs. Panel presentation, Society for Psychotherapy Research (SPR) Annual Conference, Osaka, Japan, 2026. Presents the 8-week group-based IDEAS Programme (Interventive Dynamical Evaluation and Assessment System), reporting on a pilot study of N=48 participants in NHS settings.

Orsucci, F. — Reimagining Psychotherapy: When Symptoms Are Attractors, Not Causes. Structured discussion, SPR Annual Conference, Osaka, Japan, 2026. Explores the implications of dynamical systems theory for psychotherapeutic practice, proposing that symptoms may function as stable attractors rather than surface expressions of underlying pathology.

Workshop

Orsucci, F. — AI-ABC: Complexity Science, Complex Adaptive Systems, Neural Networks and Artificial Intelligence. Workshop, 2025–2026. A hands-on intensive workshop exploring the conceptual and scientific relationships between complexity science, CAS theory, biological neural networks, and contemporary AI architectures. The workshop addresses emergent properties, coordination dynamics, and the implications of treating AI systems as participants in complex adaptive ecosystems.
