Led the bioinformation telepathy trials
3 events from the Ivanov's Ghost archive.
Ippolit Kogan takes charge of the Moscow 'bioinformation' section, seeking an electromagnetic basis for telepathy.
The Defense Intelligence Agency compiles reports on Soviet and Czech parapsychology; its 1975 report relays Kogan's bioinformation trials as evidence of a secret Soviet effort. The 1972 report does not name him.
Kogan's group runs shielded image-recognition trials and reports transmission rates of 0.005 to 0.1 bits per second; US intelligence relays the work as evidence of a Soviet psi effort. The figure of six thousand trials rests on a single unsourced account.
