Roger Nelson

Dr. Roger Nelson "professional degrees are in experimental cognitive psychology, with a special focus on the lesser known aspects of perception. His primary work in design and analysis is supplemented by a background in physics, statistical methods, and multi-media production. Until his retirement in 2002, he served as the coordinator of experimental work in the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) lab, directed by Robert Jahn in the department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, School of Engineering/Applied Science, Princeton University. He remains connected with PEAR, but gives most of his time to the Global Consciousness Project (GCP), which he directs. His work was recently profiled in TIME magazine."

"Roger Nelson, Ph.D., was Coordinator of Research at the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research ( PEAR ) laboratory at Princeton University from 1980 to 2002, and has directed the Global Consciousness Project ( GCP ), since its inception in 1997...Building on years of laboratory experiments, Roger began using random event generator (REG) technology in the field to study effects of special states of group consciousness. This led naturally to the GCP, which is designed to register indications of a coalescing global consciousness responding to major world events such as 9/11, the beginnings of war, or New Year's Eve."
