SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE Dr. May has managed complex, interdisciplinary research projects for the US federal government since 1985. He presided over 70% of the funding and 85% of the data collection for the government’s 24-year involvement in parapsychological research. His responsibilities included fund raising, personnel management, project administration and planning, and he was the guiding force for the technical research effort. Currently, Dr. May is the Executive Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory which now resides within the Laboratories for Fundamental Research. Prior to this appointment, Dr. May was the Director of a similar program at Science Applications International Corporation and before that at SRI International. Dr. May has been involved in anomalous mental phenomena research since 1972. After obtaining a Ph.D., he accumulated over 12 years experience in experimental nuclear physics research, which included the study of nuclear reaction mechanism and nuclear structure. Dr. May’s accelerator experience includes a variety of tandem Van de Graaff generators and cyclotrons operating under 50 million electron volts. Other specialize experience includes four years of g -ray spectroscopy, one year of trace-element analysis (x-ray, and a -particle techniques), numerical analysis, Monte Carlo techniques, digital signal processing, and cardiac blood flow research. In addition, he has conducted physiology research through the careful investigation of the efficacy of biofeedback in a clinical setting. Dr. May is fluent in a variety of 3-GL and 4-GL computer languages including C, FORTRAN, various machine codes, and SQL and VB4. Dr. May’s eclectic background has provided him with significant expertise in a variety of seemingly unrelated disciplines; Thus, he is ideally suited and experienced to direct interdisciplinary research.
