Something about Dr Simon Duan......

The following is sourced from a talk held by the Society of Psychical Research in 2021. Although Psi is frequently referenced in Chinese historical records throughout the history, Chinese scientists only began serious investigation into Psi in the early 1980s. Research was conducted at major universities under defence-related auspices in Beijing under the umbrella of “somatic science”. Evidence in vast quantities and of varying quality was collected from induced ESP among children, effects of mental intervention on living systems, and strong macro PK from highly skilled qigong practitioners. This talk will give a brief historical account of Psi research in China, including a critical review of some key experiments, findings, implications, problems and proposed theoretical models to explain Psi.
