- Comment: I was very tempted to do a flat reject without option to resubmit. Several of his books are self published, and there are no independent sources being science blogs. Highly promo. Ldm1954 (talk) 23:51, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: There is a lot of reference-bombing here, please choose only the one or two best sources for a statement, unless it is very likely to be controversial. -- NotCharizard 🗨 10:35, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Michael Raduga (born 1983) is a Russian-American researcher specializing on lucid dreaming. In 2023, in order to conduct medical experiments on himself, he successfully performed self-neurosurgery, which included electrode implantation.
Michael Raduga raises awareness that lucid dreams, sleep paralysis, false awakenings, out-of-body experiences, and similar phenomena should be united and studied as a single phenomenon due to their shared nature—activation of consciousness during REM sleep.
Notable experiments
[edit]In 2011–2012, Michael Raduga conducted a series of experiments demonstrating that lucid dreams could be responsible for many alien abduction stories[1] (later it was confirmed on a larger group and published in a peer-reviewed journal[2]), religious visions[3], and near-death experiences[4]
In 2020, Michael Raduga published a study in Medical Hypotheses that demonstrated close correlations between the frequencies of lucid dreams, sleep paralysis, false awakenings, and out-of-body experiences. Additionally, almost all of these phenomena were correlated with dream recall frequency and sleep duration.[5]
In 2023-2024 he has demonstrated that speech[6] and melodies[7] can be transmitted from dreams in real-time. In addition, his team have shown that a virtual Cybertruck[8] or a smart home[9] can be controlled from sleep. Additionally, Raduga's company, REMspace Inc., claims to have achieved the first ‘chat’ between two dreaming humans.[10]
Complete list of peer-reviewed studies and preprints.
Self-neurosurgery
[edit]In 2023, Raduga—to avoid bureaucratic obstacles and speed up his studies—performed self-neurosurgery that included trepanation, electrode implantation, and electrical stimulation of the motor cortex.[11][12]
