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 the first-ever 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
editIn 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[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.
Self-neurosurgery
editIn 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.[10][11]
Lucid dreaming education and facilitation

Michael Raduga has authored 15 books on lucid dreaming and related topics. Some of these books have been translated into multiple languages. Additionally, Michael Raduga has developed several devices to assist people in achieving lucid dreams.
