Introductory + Advanced Laboratory Workshops

Hands-on experience with orgonomic principles in action.

What are Laboratory Workshops?

The American College of Orgonomy offers immersive laboratory training workshops designed to provide firsthand experience with key orgonomic phenomena. Whether you’re a newcomer or continuing your studies, these sessions blend practical experiments with foundational theory.

What You’ll Learn

  • Observation of energy phenomena in physical systems
  • Basics of orgone energy accumulation and visualization
  • Application of orgonomic methods in a lab setting

Who Should Attend?

Open to professionals, students, and anyone with a serious interest in orgonomy. No prior lab experience is required—just curiosity and a willingness to observe and learn.

Our Workshops

Introductory Laboratory Workshop in Orgonomic Science

This two-day introductory workshop is run concurrently with the advanced workshop. It is given so that interested individuals with or without scientific training can have the opportunity to observe orgonomic phenomena through hands-on use of the microscope and other laboratory apparatus. The educational approach includes demonstrations, lectures, and film. The workshop includes the microscopic study of bions, the natural organization of protozoa from grass, and an introduction to the Reich Blood Test. Atmospheric orgone is observed and measured thermically and electroscopically. The effects of the orgone energy accumulator are observed, and its principles are demonstrated. Orgonomic principles of weather formation and cosmology are elucidated.

The workshop is organized under the direction of Dee Apple, Ph.D. The teaching staff includes Drs. Dee Apple, Howard Chavis, Alberto Foglia, and Peter Crist; Mr. Steven Dunlap; and Mr. Jack Sargent. The fee for the introductory workshop is $500.

Advanced Laboratory Workshop in Orgonomic Science

This four-day advanced workshop is run concurrently with the introductory workshop. The workshop allows the student to more thoroughly explore orgonomic biology and physics through direct experience and experiment. While geared for those with medical or other scientific training, this workshop can be taken by anyone enrolled in the first two days of the introductory workshop. This course is a prerequisite for certification by the American Board of Medical Orgonomy. The workshop includes an in-depth microscopic study of bions, the natural organization of protozoa from grass, the development of life from mass-free orgone energy, an introduction to the Reich Blood Test, and the study of blood and tissue of cancer mice. The atmospheric orgone is observed and measured thermically and electroscopically. The effects of the orgone energy accumulator are observed, and its principles are elucidated. Time is allowed for individual research projects, which are presented in brief on the fourth day.

The workshop is organized under the direction of Dr. Peter Crist. The fee for the advanced workshop is $1,000.
