Welcome to the Website of the Australian Institute of Parapsychological Research (a.k.a. ‘Parapsychology Australia’)
The aims of the organisation are:
- To collect, assess and disseminate factual information about claims of psychic (paranormal) phenomena.
- To support and encourage parapsychology (the scientific study of paranormal phenomena and paranormal belief). (If you have recently had psychic or spiritual experiences, you are invited to participate in Monika Goretzki’s study: Unusual Experiences. Or try Rosemary Breen’s study on paranormal events in everyday life: Paranormal Experiences.)
- To provide support in matters to do with alleged or actual experiences of a paranormal nature that may require relief of suffering, distress, or helplessness (see seeking help).
- To undertake or promote activities (e.g., fundraising, social events, etc.) in support of the above.
- Psychic experiences (or claims of such) should be studied and treated in the same way as other human experiences.
- The AIPR places psychic phenomena in the broader context of experience, health and illness.
- The AIPR advocates the use of the scientific method.
The academic aims and philosophy of the AIPR are served through our peer-reviewed journal, the Australian Journal of Parapsychology which is published twice-yearly (June and December). The journal features research articles on parapsychology and book reviews.

The AIPR offers four courses in parapsychology: The AIPR Certificate in Parapsychology and the AIPR Advanced Certificate in Parapsychology. These two online courses give students an education in the field of parapsychology by providing a comprehensive understanding of paranormal phenomena. To find out more, click here: online courses.
AIPR Advanced Certificate in Experiential Parapsychology. This course is run for groups of students who like to experience psychic phenomena directly. The emphasis is on having fun; hands-on doing psychic things. There are no exams or written assignments. This course is run in Sydney, Australia. To find out more, click here: AIPR Experiential Course.
Poltergeist Disturbances and Hauntings. Almost everyone has a ‘ghost’ story involving paranormal phenomena. This course is run in Sydney, Australia. To find out more, click here: AIPR Poltergeist and Haunting.

Presentations:
12:00 PM – 1:15 PM (AEST) – Journey into Consciousness (Remote Viewing)
Dr David Morehouse – Author, Educator, and former U.S. Army Special Operations Officer, Company and Battalion Commander and Remote Viewer for the CIA).
This is a presentation about human transformation. Nearly forty years ago, David trained a battalion of Jordanian Rangers in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. David was a killer elite, a U.S. Army Ranger Company Commander, a man whose life seemed on purpose; a military career assured. This destiny vanished in an instant when a Jordanian machine-gun bullet struck his helmet, knocking him unconscious. What followed recast the azimuth of his life, setting into motion a journey through darkness to an awakening, an epiphany of science and spirit motivating a metamorphosis of his life’s purpose and calling. His story is a journey into consciousness with perspectives on quantum physics and quantum mind, the moment, Remote Viewing, and more; all presented with the intention of inspiring a deeper understanding of individual and collective human promise and potential.1:30 PM – 2:30 PM (AEST) – Twins, Telepathy and the Brain
(Professor Emeritus Richard Silberstein – Director of Neuro-Insight, Melbourne, Australia).
Richard will describe findings from a recent Melbourne study undertaken to examine changes in brain Functional Connectivity (FC) associated with possible anomalous interactions between sensorily isolated identical (monozygotic) twins. Five sets of female twins served as participants where one twin (‘sender’) passively viewed 100 images presented at random successive intervals while their sister (‘receiver’) viewed a static image in another room. It was hypothesized that if the twins were to demonstrate anomalous interactions, then the ‘receiver’ FC will exhibit statistically significant changes only when their FC estimates are based on the ‘sender’ image appearance times. It was observed that FC changes were consistent with the hypothesis in 11 of the 38 recording sessions. The significance of the findings as well as the problems encountered will be discussed.3:00 PM – 4:00 PM (AEST) – Phone Calls from the Dead?
(Dr. Callum Cooper – Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Northampton, UK).
This presentation shall discuss the phenomenon of ‘anomalous telecommunication contacts’. Often, these contacts have been associated with After-Death Communication experiences, where reports occur of deceased individuals allegedly making contact. However, unusual reports of calls from living individuals and perceived ‘extra-terrestrials’ have been documented too. Cases shall be presented, research methods, controversies and theories.4:15 PM – 5:15 PM – Shifting to Hogwarts: Astral Projection, the Next Generation
(Samantha Lee Treasure – MA in Medical Anthropology from SOAS University of London, based in UK and Korea).
