Banachek was born in England on November 30, 1960. He was schooled in South Africa and the United States. It was while living in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, that Banachek saw his first magician at a high school function at the age of fourteen. He was intrigued but not enough to delve much further into that secret world. In 1976, the bicentennial year of the United States, Banachek moved to the U.S. It was at the end of this same year that he picked up a worn copy of James Randi’s book The Truth about Uri Geller . Banachek’s Mind Games Live is in Las Vegas at the prestigious Strat hotel, Casino and Skypod.

9 : 00 AM –11:00 AM | Workshop: Tricks of the Tricksters

In this workshop, you’re getting two renowned skeptical investigators from opposite sides to the planet – in one workshop! First, Kenny will be dipping into his toolbox of strategies for solving mysteries, specifically tricks that people use to create viral videos that appear on TikTok and YouTube: ghosts that only appear in reflections, pets that disappear into thin air, objects moving on their own, demonic entities that appear when the lights turn off, and more. We’ll then take a look behind the scenes at how easily many of these videos are created and you’ll get a chance to make some yourself! Next, Richard Saunders will be joining in to teach us the tricks of Water Diving, Spoon Bending, and the miracle Power Balance Band. How these tricks are done, how people sell them to audiences, and what you can look for to expose the trickery.

This optional event requires a special ticket. Be sure to choose it when registering if interested.

11 : 30 AM –1:00 PM | Asking Good Questions of Others and Yourself

“The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.”

—Claude Levi-Strauss (translated by John and Doreen Weightman from* Lu Cru et le Cuit*, 1964)

We like answers. We like to know them and give them. Sometimes we want others to think we are smart or knowledgeable, so we jump to give answers rather than ask questions. And the questions we do ask are sometimes more about our personal assumptions and biases than about getting to the real answer.

Good questions are a skeptic’s essential tools for finding good answers. In this participatory workshop, we will ask you to interact with us and fellow attendees to practice methods for posing questions that lead to better understanding and possibly rethinking ideas—maybe even your own.

Black Holes - The Most Confusing Objects in the Universe.

Black holes have long confused and fascinated physicists and non-physicists alike. They are undoubtedly evocative objects - the imprint of stars that have collapsed without limit under their own gravity at the end of their lives. In the 1970s, a small group of physicists including Stephen Hawking and Jacob Beckenstein developed the field of black hole thermodynamics. Their work led to a series of paradoxes and challenges which catalysed a program of research that, 50 years later, has led us to suspect that space and time are not fundamental and may emerge from a deeper theory. In this talk I will review the current understanding of Black Holes - the most confusing objects in the Universe.

9 : 00 AM –9:30 AM | Why Bother? The Nature of Pseudoscience, How to Fight It, and Why It Matters Massimo Pigliucci

We all know what pseudoscience is and why it’s important to fight the good fight. Or do we? While some instances of pseudoscience are obvious (astrology, homeopathy), it turns out that it’s hard to draw a sharp line of demarcation. We want to fight the good fight, but, arguably, we go about it largely in the wrong way.

A dip into rhetoric, for instance, may be more useful than one in science communication. And our ultimate objective, the triumph of science over superstition, is very likely forever unreachable. We should instead pursue the more modest goal identified by Carl Sagan: to keep the light of reason alive, even if surrounded by darkness.

Massimo Pigliucci

9 : 30 AM –10:00 AM | Why Do We Fall for Misinformation? Melanie Trecek-King

Have you ever wondered why even smart people fall for hoaxes, pseudoscience, and conspiracy theories? Or why giving people facts doesn’t change their minds? This presentation explores how our brains and social circles can make us vulnerable to false or misleading information and how curiosity and skepticism can help us navigate today’s information landscape … and even connect with people who disagree with us.

Melanie Trecek-King

10 : 00 AM –10:30 AM | When Skeptics Disagree Steve Novella

Skeptics should largely agree about what science says, but that's not always the case. Exploring when and why skeptics disagree may be illuminating.

11 : 00 AM –11:30 AM | The New Wellness BS? Manly, Optimizing, Science-y-ish, Longevity Woo! Timothy Caulfield

Will the stream of science-free wellness nonsense ever stop? A recent and ubiquitous trend: the rising “longevity” industry, which includes everything from consumption of hundreds of supplements to “young blood” infusions to testicle tanning. Influencers in this space, who often have impressive credentials, often use the language of real science—a tactic I call “scienceploitation”—to give their claims legitimacy. And many lean into the growing “manosphere,” that growing and ideologically charged echo chamber where traditional masculine norms are celebrated and framed as a required element to a healthy lifestyle. These characteristics of the longevity business can make it more difficult to debunk. But debunk we must!

Timothy Caulfield

11 : 30 AM –12:00 PM | The Media’s Role in Health Misinformation Rina Raphael

How is the media fueling health misinformation--and why? Is it getting better or worse? And what do we need for better science literacy? Journalist Rina Raphael shares what goes on in the newsroom that leads to so much poor health reporting.

Rina Raphael

12 : 00 PM –12:30 PM | Friendly Fire: The Role of Bad Science in Spreading Health and Wellness Misinformation Nick Tiller

Science is the most powerful tool we have for revealing objective “truths” about the natural world. As humanity grapples with existential threats such as climate change, COVID-19, and soaring obesity rates, science is our first and last hope for a solution. But what happens when the systems we’ve come to trust become part of the problem? Join Dr. Nick Tiller (research associate, Harbor-UCLA) to explore the shady side of scientific research and expose the spectrum of questionable practices, from basic procedural missteps to financially incentivized data fabrication. Using real-world examples from medicine, kinesiology, and nutrition, Tiller highlights the role of bad science in the spread of health and wellness misinformation and questions the reliability of Hanlon’s Razor—to assume ignorance over malice. In this call to action, Tiller makes recommendations for reform and challenges us to confront inconvenient truths, root out malpractice, and safeguard scientific integrity for generations to come.

2 : 00 PM –2:30 PM | Genetic Engineering Disinformation Campaigns: Why We Can’t Have Nice Things Kevin Folta

The technologies under the umbrella of genetic engineering have provided everything from cheap cheese to COVID-19 vaccines to curing sickle cell disease. We are at a precipice where the newest technologies stand to drive incredible innovation in agriculture, medicine, and conservation. However, deployment of these technologies hinges on public acceptance. Those opposed to these technologies exploit social media to spread false information and break trust in genetic engineering, the companies that develop products, and the scientists that seek to educate a concerned public about them. Their goal is to vilify useful technology for political or ideological reasons; sadly even trusted organizations fall victim to promoting misinformation. While the pace of innovation is accelerating, the deployment of technology must navigate a formidable social hurdle. The scientific and skeptical communities play a central role in identifying legitimate concerns, while at the same time countering mis /disinformation before innovation may proceed to application. This presentation frames new technologies, the tactics used to defame them, and how you can participate in effective strategic communication to advance their acceptance.

Kevin Folta

2 : 30 PM –3:00 PM | How to Teach Evolution to a Creationist Forrest Valkai

Drawing from years of experience studying and teaching biology and his popular YouTube series Reacteria , Forrest Valkai explains the best techniques and most common pitfalls he encounters when explaining evolution to a creationist audience so that you can have more productive conversations with people who distrust science.

Forrest Valkai

3 : 00 PM –3:30 PM | Psychic Detectives – False Trails Richard Saunders

Chief investigator for Australian Skeptics, Richard Saunders, examines the history and famous cases involving so-called Psychic Detectives in Australia. What role does the media play in promoting these people and how can skeptics can help in battling the misinformation.

3 : 30 PM –4:00 PM | Break / Book Signing

4 : 00 PM –5:00 PM | Panel: Longevity Lies and the Fountain of Youth

In a society obsessed with commercial quick fixes and biohacking, the quest for healthy aging and longevity has taken center stage. From dietary supplements and anti-aging creams to wellness retreats and lifestyle programs, the market is saturated with promises of eternal youth. But what do the experts say about the science of longevity? Can pills, infrared saunas, and cryotherapy slow life’s relentless march toward entropy? Has the first human to live to 150 already been born? Join Nick Tiller, Timothy Caulfield, and Rina Raphael as they untangle the science and pseudoscience of longevity. Through interactive polling and audience Q and A, the trio will dissect the claims of “precision medicine,” delve into tech magnate Bryan Johnson’s quest for the fountain of youth, and challenge conventional wisdom surrounding diet and exercise.

8 : 00 PM –9:00 PM | More Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization Neil deGrasse Tyson

How to use scientific rationality, coupled with a dose of cosmic perspective, to navigate our tribal divisions on gender, race, politics, and religion during holiday dinners.

Saturday, October 26

9 : 00 AM –9:30 AM | Sex and Race: Handling the Ideological Hot Potatoes Jerry Coyne

In recent years, ideology has been creeping into evolutionary biology, distorting facts in a way that gives people a false impression of what nature is like. In this talk, I explore two of the many ways this ideological erosion of biology has infected the field. The first is the increasingly widespread claim that biological sex is a “spectrum”: that there are not just two sexes, male and female, but a large number of them. This may be true of gender but not of biological sex itself, which is always binary, with just two sexes in all animals and vascular plants. Why has this distortion occurred? Probably to buttress the felt identities of people who are transsexual or non-binary. But this conflates sex and gender, and the sex binary, which has led to big advances in understanding evolution, should not be distorted in the service of ideology.

A similar phenomenon has occurred in biological discussions of race , though the term is fraught and I prefer to use populations . The popular argument that there are no meaningful genetic differences between human populations has led the American Medical Association, for instance, to state that “Race and ethnicity are social constructs without biological meaning.” This is in fact false: human populations over the globe have sufficient genetic differences that we can infer our ancestry with high accuracy—and even deduce one’s crude self-identified “race”—from a sample of DNA. These genetic differences evolved when early human populations lived in physical isolation, and have implications not just for deducing ancestry, but also tracing the history of human migration and for mitigating disparities in health and education. Again, the reason for the popular idea that race is nonexistent comes from a well-meaning desire to see nature as we would like it to be: with everyone in the world pretty much genetically identical.

But, in the end, we should not look to nature to buttress our ideology, politics, or morality, for this tactic not only distorts science, but also grounds our values on observations of biology rather than on the proper foundation—reason and humanism.

Jerry Coyne

9 : 30 AM –10:00 AM | Quantum Misogyny Natalia Pasternak

“Family Constellation” is a pseudoscientific therapy in which the “quantum energy” of the family and relatives of the patient (dead or alive) manifests itself. Created in Germany, it became popular in Brazilian courts of law as a way to ease family disputes. The practice systematically blames women for refusing to submit to their male relatives.

10 : 00 AM –10:30 AM | Our Fragile Moment: How Lessons from Earth's Past Can Help Us Survive the Climate Crisis Michael Mann

For most of its 4.54 billion years, Earth has proven it can manage just fine without human beings. Then came the first proto-humans, who emerged just a little more than two million years ago—a fleeting moment in geological time. What is it that made this benevolent moment of ours possible? Ironically, it’s the very same thing that now threatens us—climate change. The drying of the tropics during the Pleistocene period created a niche for early hominids, who could hunt prey as forests gave way to savannahs in the African tropics. The sudden cooling episode known as the “Younger Dryas” 13,000 years ago, which occurred just as Earth was thawing out of the last Ice Age, spurred the development of agriculture in the fertile crescent. The “Little Ice Age” cooling of the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries led to famines and pestilence for much of Europe, yet it was a boon for the Dutch, who were able to take advantage of stronger winds to shorten their ocean voyages. The conditions that allowed humans to live on Earth are fragile, incredibly so. Climate variability has at times created new niches that humans or their ancestors could potentially exploit and challenges that at times have spurred innovation. But there’s a relatively narrow envelope of climate variability within which human civilization remains viable. And our survival depends on conditions remaining within that range. In this talk, I will arm attendees with the knowledge necessary to appreciate the gravity of the unfolding climate crisis, while emboldening them—and others—to act before it truly does become too late.

11 : 00 AM –11:30 AM | How Minds Change David McRaney

David McRaney will talk about how, in the process of writing a book about the science of why it’s so hard to change people's minds, he changed his own mind about how minds change. In this talk, you'll not only learn what works when it comes to persuading, debunking, and challenging conventions to disagreeing well, you'll learn why it is vitally important to understand why some of us saw that photo of a dress as black-and-blue and others as white-and-gold (because it answers a whole of questions about how much of modern discourse can seem impossibly polarized).

David McRaney

11 : 30 AM –12:00 PM | Do We Teach Critical Thinking in Schools? Bertha Vazquez

Well, that depends on your definition of critical thinking. The term critical thinking means different things to different people. Who is right? Science teachers are trained to teach critical thinking, emphasizing that science is falsifiable and requires tested hypotheses, evidence, and consensus. They encourage students to engage in the scientific process through NGSS practices and project-based learning.

But here’s what they don’t teach: how our own flawed thinking and perceptions can get in the way of accepting facts. They do not teach that many of the things we each believe are tied more closely to our identities than to any facts. This reality that our worldview affects how we process new information and that science is the best way to put guardrails in place so we can seek the truth in the most objective way possible should be an ongoing theme in our classrooms.

Bertha Vazquez

2 : 00 PM –2:30 PM | Putting Paranormal Claims to the Test Chris French

Although the main research focus of the Anomalistic Psychology Research Unit in the Department of Psychology at Goldsmiths was the development and, where possible, testing of non-paranormal explanations of ostensibly paranormal experiences, we have also over the years devoted considerable time and effort to directly testing paranormal claims. This talk will present an overview of these investigations including claims of psychic ability and mediumship, "human magnetism", dowsing, and precognition. Spoiler alert: I am still a sceptic.

Chris French

2 : 30 PM –3:00 PM | Echo Chambers vs. Evidence: Ideological Conflicts in Science Acceptance Andrea Love

In a world increasingly polarized by differing ideologies, acceptance of scientific evidence becomes a battleground shaped not only by facts but also by the echo chambers of social and political beliefs. These insular groups and resultant identity communities cultivate selective trust in science, which substantially influence public and individual perceptions of scientific facts.

Drawing from case studies in contentious fields such as vaccines, food ingredients, and genetic technologies, this presentation explores and illustrates how ideological biases lead to the selective rejection of evidence. This rejection is further exacerbated by psychological phenomena such as confirmation bias and belief perseverance.

By shedding light on the challenges of effectively communicating science in a polarized society, this talk aims to propose strategies for bridging the ideological divide. It emphasizes the importance of fostering productive discussions on topics frequently targeted by misinformation campaigns in order to minimize far-reaching and pervasive harms to public health and science literacy.

Andrea Love

3 : 00 PM –4:00 PM | Out of Focus Daniel Simons

Daniel Simons will talk about how the cognitive abilities that usually serve us well can make us vulnerable to mistaken beliefs, misinformation, self-deception, and outright fraud. Even our abilities to focus intently and think critically can be turned against us when we fail to think about what falls outside our focus. His presentation will draw on topics ranging from visual attention and magic to science fraud and the exhilarating world of management consulting to show how easily we can be deceived—both by ourselves and by others—and what we can do about it.

8 : 30 PM –9:30 PM | Banachek Presents: Mind Games

When it comes to the world of magic and mysticism, do you consider yourself a believer in the unknown? Well, it may surprise you that magician and master mentalist Banachek is a devoted nonbeliever—and trust us when we say that his skepticism is absolutely a gift to the world.

Banachek's current reputation as the world's leading mentalist began when he was just eighteen years old when he and a friend signed up for a “scientific” study called Project Alpha.

For the next four years, Banachek would use his arsenal of mentalist tricks to convince the researchers at the newly founded McDonnell Laboratory for Psychical Research of Washington University that he had psychic abilities. Some of these researchers were so convinced of Banachek's “abilities” that once he revealed the truth, they still refused to change their minds.

Banachek has also partnered with multiple investigators to expose fraudulent psychics, mediums, and spiritualists who take advantage of the suffering and emotions of others for monetary gain. One of his most famous investigations was of the American televangelist Peter Popoff, whom he unmasked on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Carson in 1986.

LiliCon is a half day of short presentations on the topic of how to best teach critical thinking as it relates to rational skepticism by university scholars and instructors. Come learn what we know about best practices that allow students to learn the difference between science and pseudoscience, and how we use evidence to inform and improve our textbooks and teaching strategies.

Call for Papers

The Committee for Skeptical Inquiry is delighted to announce our annual Call for Papers. Selected applicants will have the opportunity to give a talk at the Sunday Morning Papers session of CSICon 2024.

The tradition of the Papers session recognizes new voices and new ideas, and showcases them on the CSICon stage. If you have had success in communicating scientific skepticism, combating pseudoscience, or furthering the mission of CSI in a significant way, we encourage you to submit a proposal.

Appropriate topics are those which support the mission of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, and which reflect the type of material typically published in Skeptical Inquirer .

These are presentations in which presenters share their experiences in bringing critical thinking into the teaching and learning process, into daily decision-making, throughout organizations or departments, or into any other aspect of work or life. Guest Presenters may share their research in critical thinking, or their developed theory and application of critical thinking. 

Guest Presentations will be listed soon on this website.

Discussion Groups

All presentations will be followed by scheduled online discussion groups, in which attendees will be able to participate via video feed, audio feed, or text chat (depending on their available technology). presenters will elaborate on and contextualize their presentations during these discussions, and participants will have the opportunity to ask questions..

The number of Discussion Groups following each Focal Presentation will  be determined by the number of registrants interested in discussing that presentation, while each Guest Presenter will hold at least two Discussions Groups based on his or her presentation.

The Discussion Group Schedule will be made available to all participants throughout the conference.

Intensive Workshops

Intensive Workshops will be held in real time online and will be led by Fellows and Scholars of the Foundation for Critical Thinking.

Dr. gerald nosich.

Dr. Gerald Nosich is a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Critical Thinking and a prominent authority on critical thinking. He has given more than 150 national and international workshops on critical thinking, has worked with the U.S. Department of Education on a project for the National Assessment of Higher Order Thinking skills, has served as the Assistant Director of the Center for Critical Thinking, and has been featured as a Noted Scholar at the University of British Columbia.

As a principal, he led the implementation of this critical thinking approach to bring about state-recognized levels of achievement in three different Title I schools – a high school, a middle school, and an elementary school. He helped author the reasoning portion of the Colorado Academic Standards that are based on the Paul-Elder framework. In addition to his administrative experience, Dr. Bankes was an elementary school teacher, continues teaching critical thinking courses at the college level, and is currently serving as a Director on his School Board of Education.

About the conference and the foundation for critical thinking.

CSICon is the premier science, skeptics and critical thinking conference, where hundreds of critical thinkers come to Las Vegas, the city of illusions, to hear from the leading lights of science and skepticism.

“We Do Not Apologize!”: Saturday and Sunday at CSICon 2024

CSICon Jeff Dellinger , Melissa Sherrard

If there was one idea that popped up most frequently throughout Saturday’s CSICon presentations, it was the many conflicts between facts and feelings, between what evidence tells us is true versus what we sometimes want or wish to be true. As Neil deGrasse Tyson observed on Friday, that tension is something we all have to …

“What About the Tuna?!?”: Day Two at CSICon 2024

Buffets are a Las Vegas staple, and Day Two of CSICon offered a variety of skeptical flavors, with a little something for everyone. The recurring theme was on the misinformation and pseudoscience that runs rampant in the health and wellness industry, while also touching on the foundations of skepticism, the importance of curiosity, psychic detectives, …

“Science Nerd Heaven”: Day One at CSICon 2024

CSICon Jeff Dellinger

In her welcome remarks during CSICon 2024’s opening night reception, Center for Inquiry President and CEO Robyn Blumner said, “This is the very definition of science nerd heaven.” It is safe to say that, had you polled the attendees at any point on Day One, you’d have been hard-pressed to find many who disagreed. This …

CSICon 2023: Saturday and Sunday

When it comes to vaccine science, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone with the expertise to rival Dr. Paul Offit.  Saturday began with Offit’s “Why So Many COVID Boosters?,” which explored why the confusion around COVID-19 booster dosing—and how that confusion started. Offit discussed how the public health messaging around the bivalent booster shots …

CSICon 2023: Day Two

In her welcome remarks on Thursday evening, Center for Inquiry President and CEO Robyn Blumner observed there were many new faces in the CSICon crowd this year. The same holds true for this year’s speaker lineup, which featured an interesting mix of skeptical community mainstays and newer voices, coming together to offer a multigenerational look …

CSICon 2023: Day One

Does understanding how and why things work strip us of our sense of wonder and astonishment…or lead us to a deeper one? From card tricks to evolutionary biology, the interplay of science and wonder proved to be a recurring theme as CSICon 2023 kicked-off Thursday in Las Vegas. Day One began with a pair of …

10 Random, Offbeat Memories from CSICON 2022

CSICon , Hollywood Reality Check Jim Underdown

A gathering of 600+ science-based skeptics – in a city that exists largely because of credulity – can be an odd, but inspiring affair. I’ve been to many of these conferences over the last 23 years, both as a speaker and attendee, but last weekend was one of the best. Here are 10 images in …

CSICon Recap: Days Three & Four

Following a legend onstage can be a daunting task. Following two legends on-stage together? Normally that’d be a public speaking “death sentence.” But over the course of the weekend, one CSICon presenter after another made it look easy. Saturday and Sunday saw an impressive array of guests delivering insightful, often powerful presentations. Saturday began with …

CSICon Recap: Day Two

“Sensory overload” is a built-in part of any trip to Las Vegas. But Friday’s CSICon program featured so many fantastic presenters delivering so much powerful information and insight, one after another after another, it made the typical stroll across the casino floor seem pokey and sedate by comparison. The morning started with Richard Wiseman’s Investigating …

CSICon Recap: Day One

The Flamingo Las Vegas sits directly opposite Caesar’s Palace on the Las Vegas Strip. It’s got a “classic Vegas” vibe, but all the tech and trappings of a modern hotel/casino. In that sense, it’s the perfect venue for CSICon: it’s been around for years but is constantly evolving, so each new year is different. The …
