The Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) has been exploring the frontiers of consciousness and human potential for over 50 years. Noetic sciences invite us to explore the deeper nature of our inner worlds, our shared reality, and the interconnection between all things. Our research spans the areas of psi, survival of consciousness, telepathy, mind-matter interaction, collective consciousness, lucid dreaming, including consciousness into the equations of modern physics, and more.
The world’s most celebrated thriller writer returns with his most stunning novel yet—featuring IONS and a noetic scientist on the verge of sharing explosive discoveries about the nature of human consciousness. Explore the real science behind the fiction.
During his journey home from the moon, Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell gazed out at Earth, the stars, and the vastness of space and felt an overwhelming sense of unity with all of existence. He recognized that to truly understand this profound experience (and others like it), we would need a new approach, one that bridges science and spirituality. Out of this vision, he founded the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
Explore the paradox of psi—psychic phenomena like telepathy and precognition—in this webinar with Marilyn Schlitz and Garret Yount, reflecting on why it inspires both curiosity and fear.
Join IONS’ Dean Radin & Helané Wahbeh as they reveal the real science behind Dan Brown’s Secret of Secrets—where imagination meets the true frontiers of consciousness.
Do you ever know or feel what someone else feels or thinks? We are looking for emotionally bonded pairs or twins to investigate the phenomenon of mind-to-mind communication. If you have experienced such “telepathic” instances, we invite you to take part in this study.
In a noetic experience, someone receives information or energy from beyond the conventional notions of space and time. An experience of oneness or peace, a message from a deceased relative, a mind-to-mind communication with another person — these are all noetic experiences.
We continue to advance the field of scientific discovery by regularly publishing peer-reviewed papers in established journals. Here are just a few you may find interesting.
Published in Frontiers in Psychology
The nature of consciousness is considered one of science’s most perplexing and persistent mysteries.
Published in Journal of Anomalous Experience and Cognition
This study’s objective was to evaluate what types of evidence might persuade academic professionals that some aspect of consciousness survives after bodily death.
Published in Journal of Spirituality and Religion
This initiative researches interconnectivity between human consciousness and the Earth’s environment, with the intention of promoting peace and harmony.
Published in EXPLORE
We conducted a cross-sectional study of triads examining the accuracy of knowing who was calling using two randomly selected designs.
Published in Cardiology & Vascular Research
There is preliminary evidence that mental attention can influence physical systems in an instantaneous and non-local way.
“Channeling is the process of revealing information and energy not limited by our conventional notions of space and time that can appear receptive or expressive.”

A long-term psychokinesis experiment, the Global Consciousness Project collected 23 years of random number generators and resulted in a 7 sigma anomaly. This project will investigate if that result is due to a force-like, causal influence on probabilistic events, or a passive effect based on precognition of fortuitous fluctuations in a random walk.
The Global Consciousness Project 2.0 (GCP 2.0) is a research-based journey into understanding the depths of our connection with the world around us. By delving into the intricate relationship between individual and global consciousness, the project seeks to explain how our shared experiences and intentions can shape our world – even helping to bridge divides and promote greater care and well-being globally.
