Dean Radin, Senior Scientist
The Institute of Noetic Sciences

Dean Radin’s professional career has focused on experimentally exploring far reaches of human consciousness, primarily phenomena like intuition, gut feelings and psi phenomena—poorly understood phenomena. 

Dr. Radin graduated magna cum laude with senior honors from University of Massachusetts (Amherst) in electrical engineering, obtained a masters in electrical engineering, and then a PhD in psychology from the University of Illinois.

For a decade Dean worked at AT&T Bell Laboratories followed by work at GTE laboratories on advanced telecommunications research and development. Radin’s experimental research with psychic or "psi" phenomena lead to appointments at Princeton University, University of Edinburgh, University of Nevada, and SRI International and Interval Research Corporation. At SRI he worked on what is now popularly known as the (formerly classified) psi research program codenamed StarGate.. In 2000 Dr. Radin cofounded the Boundary Institute and since 2001 has been Senior Scientist at the INSTITUTE OF NOETIC SCIENCES. In addition, Dr. Radin also holds an adjunct appointment at Sonoma State University and am on the Distinguished Consulting Faculty at Saybrook Graduate School.

In his web site (www.deanradin.com) , Dr. Radin expresses that his original interest was motivated primarily by sheer curiosity, but also by an appreciation that these experiences are responsible for most of the greatest inventions, artistic and scientific achievements, creative insights, and religious epiphanies throughout history. He goes on to explain, “Understanding this realm of human experience [thus] offers more than mere academic interest -- it touches upon the very best that the human intellect and spirit have had to offer.”
