Exploring Our Interconnected Universe

We conduct scientific research on the most profound mysteries of human existence.

Our research goal: a deeper understanding of the true nature of reality

Since 1973, IONS has been at the forefront of the scientific investigation of consciousness and its role in our lives and the physical world. Through intensive research and groundbreaking experimentation, we explore the interconnection between personal, inner space and the “outer space” of our shared reality.
