NXIVM , adrenochrome, neuroscience. Is there a connection?
The TimesUnion article from 2017 included information and link to Kobalt's complaint against Dr. Porter. Was this possible MKULTRA or adenochrome-type focus? Kobalt told TimesUnion that she was recruited by an assistant to Salzman and said Salzman's assistant told her that she had been instructed to recruit up to 100 people to take part. Sounds like a real research project. Hmm…

COMPLAINT: https:// www.documentcloud.org/documents/4113542-Porter-Complaint.html#document/p1/a383039
Dr. Porter: MD PHD from the University of Iowa; graduated 2006 and published on research unrelated to this subject.

University of Iowa: Has a great commitment to brain research. The Iowa Neuroscience Institute was established in 2016 with a $45 million grant from the Roy J. Carver Charitable Trust. It is a multidisciplinary center comprised of more than 100 scientists across campus determined to solve the mysteries of the brain and nervous system. Interests include behavioral and cognitive neuroscience.

Also included in the Neuroscience Institute is a DeLTA center: (?cute) From their web page:
" Delta is the symbol for "change." The DeLTA (Development and Learning from Theory to Application) Center is an interdisciplinary research community at the University of Iowa dedicated to exploring the processes of learning and development by promoting interactions between basic and applied researchers, training the next generation of collaborative scientists, and actively engaging with community partners."

However, I could not find any funding link to Salzman/Dr. Porter human research project.
Salzman studied psycho-neuroimmunology and psychobiology according to her own bio. Psychobiology is the study of the brain, human or animal behavior and the relationship between the two. It is also called behavioral neuroscience. Dr. Nancy Andreasen is a world expert in neuroscience, including psychobiology and schizophrenia, who has been an integral part of the U of Iowa for decades. Perhaps Salzman attended some classes at U of Iowa and she and Dr. Porter crossed paths there and she recruited him?

Lastly: Links between adrenochrome, neuroscience and schizophrenia. In this article in ORTHOMOLECULAR PSYCHIATRY, VOLUME 10, NUMBER 2, 1981, Pp. 98-118 Dr.Hoffer in Canada states that "the adrenochrome hypothesis accounts for the syndrome schizophrenia more accurately than do any of the competing hypotheses."

So far the focus seems to be on the women, Raniere & $$$ but their "research" could be interesting too.
