ISSSEEM Second Annual Conference
The second annual conference oflSSSEEM will be held in Boulder, Colorado, June 26-30,
11992,
^We are p'eased
to chair the program committee for this meeting. Also serving on the committee are: David Hibbard,
Ching -tse Lee, Ph.D., and Robert Shellenberger, Ph.D.
The theme for the conference, Bridging the Paradigms Through Clinical Practice, Research and Theory, reflects
three factors:
the diversity of the membership oflSSSEEM; the contributions of clinical work, laboratory re-
search and theory to our knowledge of subtle energies and human potential; and the continuous evolution of the
accepted paradigm as data and theories from many disciplines enlarge and transform that paradigm and form a
bridge to the new.
The conceptual shifts occurring in physics, medicine, and psychology (to name only three disciplines) are based
on data that cannot be explained by traditional theory; these data stimulate new concepts and models. We pro-
pose the following tasks for the second annual conference:
(1) to present data regarding subtle energies an
human potential from different disciplines that suggest conceptual shifts and that bridge the paradigms; (2) to
describe how traditional theories might be revised and new theories formulated to account for the data, (3) to
continue discussions initiated at the first annual conference on appropriate methodologies for obtaining reliable
data.
A call for submissions is included in this newsletter. A “multidisciplinary” conference is planned, with speakers
who contribute to the expansion of the conceptual matrix and account for the phenomena of subtle energies and
human potential, thus bridging the paradigms.
Because data are an essential element in the bridge between
paradigms we emphasize the need for well-documented clinical and research findings that illustrate or imply the
existence of subtle energies and human potential. This might include for example, anomalous medical, physical,
and psychological phenomena We encourage symposia and panels that bring together laboratory research and
clinical data
Finally, we encourage the theoreticians among us (and the theoretician within us all) to explore the
conceptual bridges that account for the phenomena of subtle energies and human potential and that unify these
phenomena
We are pleased that Elmer Green, President of ISSSEEM, will discuss the nature of the paradigm shift in his
welcoming comments, and will continue his discussion of the “copper wall” data We have invited Robert
Becker, M.D., author of The Body Electric and Cross Currents, to be the keynote speaker. Other invited addresses
will be scheduled at the beginning of each day.
The Second Annual Conference will be one day longer than the
first conference, and the short courses will be held late afternoons. These and other changes enable longer
presentations and greater audience participation.
We anticipate continued excitement and camaraderie as we come together again to share ideas and experiences
with our colleagues in the International Society for the Study of Subtle Energies and Energy Medicine.
Sincerely,
<?

Submission Guidelines
The program for the annual conference will include invited speakers and symposia, panels, short courses, papers, posters
and workshops selected from proposals submitted by the membership.
Please consider the various formats described in
the following pages and submit proposals following the guidelines. The information requested in this Call for Submis-
sions is essential to the complex task of preparing and printing the program.
