"It blew my mind," he says, "that people were studying this stuff with the methods of science." Moulton spent a summer studying psi research techniques at Rhine's old lab. Then, at Harvard, he conducted experiments using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to search for hard evidence of psi activity in the brain.
