The conference will explore two complementary pathways into frontier science: Evidence\ , grounded in empirical data\, careful analysis\, and theoretical insigh t\; and Encounters\, based on personal experiences that challenge conven tional scientific paradigms.\n\nThe 2026 program brings together researc hers\, scholars\, practitioners\, experiencers\, and curious members of the public for keynote presentations\, research talks\, poster sessions\ , a banquet\, exhibitor opportunities\, and immersive post-conference wo rkshops. Topics will include UAPs and non-human intelligence\, remote vi ewing\, psi research\, trance channeling\, consciousness models\, artifi cial intelligence\, quantum information\, panpsychism\, empirical astrol ogy\, energy and frequency healing\, psychedelic research\, skepticism\, and the future of human potential.\n\n“Scientific progress often begi ns where the known world meets the unexplained\,” said Daqing “Dachi ng” Piao\, Program Chair. “This year’s theme invites participants to look carefully at both the data and the encounters that continue to p ush science toward new questions.”\n\nA Program at the Edge of Science \nThe conference opens Wednesday evening\, June 17\, with registration a nd a welcome reception. Formal sessions begin Thursday morning with an o pening keynote by psychedelic research pioneer Robin Carhart-Harris\, Ph .D.\, followed by a day of talks spanning UAP studies\, non-human intell igence\, channeled communications\, ball lightning\, anomalous phenomena \, Soviet extrasensory research\, and new models of consciousness.\n\nTh e Thursday UAP session includes presentations such as “Empirical Eleph ants in the UAP Room\,” “Attitudinal\, Experiential\, and Physiologi cal Correlates of Encounters with UAP and Non-Human Intelligent Beings\, ” and “Xenomythology: Convergent Evolution of Mythological Cognition and Implications for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.” Together\, these talks examine UAPs and NHI from empirical\, experiential\, psychologica l\, and mythological perspectives.\n\nThursday afternoon’s “Psience sessions will explore trance channeling\, cross-source analysis of ch anneled material\, anomalous lights and orbs\, energetic models of the b ody\, and consciousness-mind duality. The evening will feature a special Journal of Scientific Exploration/SSE session focused on the role of sm all journals in advancing major discoveries.\n\nFriday\, June 19\, highl ights psi\, remote viewing\, emerging analytical methods\, and theoretic al models of reality. Dean Radin\, M.S.\, Ph.D.\, Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences\, will deliver the Dinsdale Award Special Session keynote\, “Seeing Psi with a New Lens.” The Remote Viewing s ession will include “An Exploratory Investigation of Two Anomalous Obj ect Retrieval Cases through Remote Viewing and the Use of AI and Human A nalysis\,” presented by Debra Lynne Katz\, Teresa Fendley\, and Cindy Miller\, along with talks on client-based remote viewing and AI-assisted remote viewing.\n\nFriday afternoon will expand into broader theory and model-building\, including empirical investigation of astrology\, the a rchitecture of meaning in natural language\, biological transmutation\, quantum information panpsychism\, artificial intelligence and consciousn ess\, and experimental work involving random number generators and goal- orientation.\n\nFriday evening’s poster session will give attendees an opportunity to engage directly with researchers and presenters explorin g subjects such as transhumanism\, quantum consciousness\, ideomotor com munication\, anomalous light and energy events\, models of precognition\ , and the expansion of human capacity.\n\nSaturday\, June 20\, turns tow ard the “Encounters” side of the conference theme with keynote speak er Mark Anthony\, JD\, presenting “Rulers\, Royals\, Psychics and Spir its: The Psychics Behind the Thrones.” Saturday sessions will also exa mine healing\, frequency medicine\, Rife technology\, after-death commun ication\, and the relationship between levels of encounter and skepticis m. The conference banquet will feature an after-dinner talk by Paul D. S perry\, “Mayan Highlands to Bermuda Triangle: How the Wanderings of Sy nchronicity Revealed a Path for Our Quest.”\n\nFeatured Keynote Speake rs\nRobin Carhart-Harris\, Ph.D. — “How Psychedelics Work: Illuminat ing the Hidden Mind”\nDr. Carhart-Harris is the Ralph Metzner Distingu ished Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry at the University of Califor nia\, San Francisco\, where he leads the Carhart-Harris Lab. Internation ally recognized for groundbreaking research into the brain mechanisms an d therapeutic potential of psychedelic compounds\, he previously founded the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College London. His wor k has helped reshape contemporary scientific understanding of psychedeli cs\, consciousness\, and mental health.\n\nDean Radin\, M.S.\, Ph.D. — “Seeing Psi with a New Lens”\nDr. Radin\, Chief Scientist at the In stitute of Noetic Sciences and Associated Distinguished Professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies\, will discuss how new instrum ents and analytical tools are advancing psi research\, including studies of remote viewing and precognition. Dr. Radin is the 2026 recipient of the SSE’s Dinsdale Award\, which honors senior scholars who have made substantial contributions to the scientific study of anomalies.\n\nMark Anthony\, JD — “Rulers\, Royals\, Psychics and Spirits: The Psychics Behind the Thrones”\nPsychic Explorer® Mark Anthony\, attorney and a uthor of the bestselling books Evidence of Eternity and The Afterlife Fr equency\, will lead audiences on a historical and cross-cultural journey into the psychics\, spirits\, and mystical influences reportedly surrou nding rulers\, royals\, and world leaders.\n\nOptional Post-Conference W orkshops\nThe conference will also feature optional post-conference work shops for attendees seeking a more immersive experiential component.\n\n Mark Anthony\, JD — “A Morning of Spirit Communication”\nSunday\, June 21\, 9:00 AM–11:00 AM\nMark Anthony will offer an uplifting prese ntation focused on spirit communication and the possibility of connectin g with loved ones on “the Other Side.”\n\nDebra Lynne Katz\, Ph.D. “Practical Psi: A Two-Day Intensive Training in Remote Viewing\, Cl airvoyance\, Energy Healing\, and Mediumship”\nSunday\, June 21\, 12:0 0 PM–6:00 PM\, and Monday\, June 22\, 9:00 AM–5:30 PM\nJoin Debra Ly nne Katz\, Ph.D.\, former president of the International Remote Viewing Association and CEO of the International School of Clairvoyance\, for a two-day intensive workshop integrating hands-on training in applied psi practices\, including remote viewing\, clairvoyance\, energy healing\, a nd mediumship. The workshop will combine experiential exercises with tho ughtful discussion of the scientific and methodological issues surroundi ng these phenomena.\n\nRegistration and Hotel Information\nRegistration\ , hotel information\, workshop details\, and the full conference schedul e are available at:\nwww.scientificexploration.org/2026-Conference\n\nTh e conference hotel is the Denver Marriott Westminster\, located between Denver and Boulder\, with access to both city amenities and the Colorado mountain landscape.\n\nAbout the Society for Scientific Exploration\nTh e Society for Scientific Exploration is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizati on dedicated to providing a critical forum for research into conventiona l and unconventional topics at the leading edge of scientific inquiry.
