During the free special event, On The Leading Edge: IONS at 50 and Beyond on Friday, November 17th, we heard from the IONS science team including Helane Wahbeh, Dean Radin, Arnaud Delorme, and Cedric Cannard who are leading research in the areas of non-local consciousness, channeling, exceptional healing, psychic phenomena, survival of consciousness, and more. They discussed their current projects and what’s to come in the years ahead.
