Research Publications & Contributions
The Beyond Science + Consciousness Alliance (BSCA) publishes curated research contributions that advance interdisciplinary dialogue on open scientific, technological, and societal questions. Publications are intended to:
- Clarify unresolved problems
- Explore competing perspectives
- Encourage responsible inquiry across disciplines
- Support collaboration between academia, industry, and policy communities
BSCA publications complement—rather than replace—formal peer-reviewed journals.

EDITORIAL INTEGRITY
To maintain clarity, rigor, and trust, BSCA follows these editorial principles:
- Authors retain full responsibility for their contributions
- Publication does not imply institutional endorsement by BSCA
- Evidence, hypothesis, interpretation, and speculation must be clearly distinguished
- Contributions are reviewed for clarity, relevance, and responsible framing
- BSCA publications are not peer-reviewed journals, unless explicitly stated
These principles ensure openness while maintaining academic and ethical standards.
CONTRIBUTION PATHWAY
Contributions may be:
- Linked to topics within the BSCA Research Compendium
- Authored by individuals or collaborative groups
- Submitted by academics, industry researchers, policymakers, or independent scholars
All submissions undergo an initial editorial screening prior to publication consideration.
