UAP Talk: Stanford's Sol Foundation
Please note: RSVP approval is required to attend. Enter through the Omni Hotel entrance.
Professors Garry Nolan, Peter Skafish, and special guest Hal Puthoff, convene to discuss our evolving understanding of UAP. As founders of the Sol Foundation, headquartered at Stanford University, they are at the forefront of a concerted effort to assemble a diverse coalition of scholars and policy experts to address the scientific and political issues that arise from confirmation that genuine Unidentified Aerial Phenomena exist. They established the foundation to pursue evidence-based policy and interdisciplinary research collaborations. Their goal is to promote an inclusive conversation that incorporates scientific rigor, policy analysis, and global security strategies.
Garry Nolan is a distinguished immunologist and a professor at Stanford University. He was published over 350 peer reviewed research articles, holds over 50 US patents and has been named one of Stanford’s top 25 inventors. Nolan is known for pioneering developments in scientific technology, and research on immunology and the brain. His credibility extends into various interdisciplinary studies, including his research into the field of UFOs.
Hal Puthoff is an American physicist and parapsychologist known for his research into paranormal phenomena and quantum physics. He gained prominence as a researcher at Stanford Research Institute where he explored remote viewing and psychic phenomena in the 1970s, work that was later funded by the U.S. government under Project Stargate. Puthoff has also made significant contributions to theoretical physics, specifically in the area of quantum vacuum energy and its potential applications in energy generation and propulsion technologies. His interdisciplinary approach has placed him at the forefront of exploring the scientific boundaries between the known and the mysterious, making him a pivotal figure in both conventional physics and the study of unexplained phenomena.
Peter Skafish is an anthropologist known for his interdisciplinary approach to social and cultural phenomena. His work often intersects the fields of anthropology, philosophy, and history, examining how cultural practices and beliefs shape human experiences across different societies. Skafish has contributed to academic discussions on topics such as colonialism, religion, and globalization, bringing a nuanced understanding of how these forces impact local cultures. His scholarship is characterized by a deep engagement with both theoretical frameworks and empirical research, making him a respected figure in contemporary anthropology.
