Physician biophysicist, neuroscientist, and inventor, Dr. John C. Lilly specialized in the study of consciousness and worked in various fields of science, including biophysics, neurophysiology, electronics, and neuroanatomy. His research includes studies on solitude, isolation and confinement and dolphin-human relationships. In 1954, Lilly invented the isolation tank and experimented with sensory deprivation. In 1959, he founded the Communications Research Institute at St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands and served as its director until 1968. There he worked with dolphins exploring dolphin intelligence and human-dolphin communication. It was during this period that he was introduced to LSD and other psychoactives. He began using LSD and ketamine in combination with the tanks as a method of consciousness and metaprogramming exploration.
