InnerScience Research Fund

InnerScience Research Fund is a nonprofit organization dedicated to funding and supporting rigorous scientific research into the biological and physiological effects of meditation and mindfulness. The organization primarily collaborates with researchers at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) to study how intensive meditation practices influence gene expression, protein synthesis, and the microbiome. By utilizing advanced technologies like genomics and proteomics, InnerScience aims to provide empirical evidence for the mind-body connection and its role in healing chronic illnesses. Their mission is to validate the transformative power of meditation as a recognized tool in mainstream healthcare through large-scale data collection and peer-reviewed publications.
