Parapsychology Research

This page links to many research-related resources within the area of parapsychology, which focus on topics such as telekinesis, telepathy, and psychic skepticism.  The “grants offered for psi research” section displays all organizations known to provide funding for psi research.  The “ways you can participate in psi research” section includes psi-games, and other ways you can become a subject and can contribute to psionic and psychic research.  The “psi research organizations” section provides links to all known non-profit organizations within the area of parapsychology.
