Roger D. Nelson is an American parapsychologist and researcher and the director of the Global Consciousness Project (GCP), an international, multi-laboratory collaboration founded in 1997 which aimed to study collective consciousness.[1] From 1980 to 2002, he was Coordinator of Research at the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) laboratory at Princeton University.[2] His professional focus was the study of consciousness and intention and the role of the mind in the physical world. His work integrates science and spirituality [citation needed], including research that is directly focused on numinous communal experiences.[3]
Nelson began using random event generator (REG) technology in the field to study effects of special states of group consciousness.[4]
Nelson's professional degrees are in experimental cognitive psychology.[5] Until his retirement in 2002, he served as the coordinator of experimental work in the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research Lab (PEAR), directed by Robert Jahn in the department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, School of Engineering/Applied Science, Princeton University.[6]
