Rupert Sheldrake is a biochemist from England, who made significant contributions to theories of developmental Biology, specifically in the subfield of morphogenesis; "the biological process that causes an organism to develop its shape". He has also performed extensive research in the field of parapsychology; paranormal psychological phenomena.

Sheldrake's work has received mixed responses. Many scientists considered his claims to be "purely hypothetical", with little experimental basis. Some of his ideas, however, have been given some credibility and support by notable biologists.

Sheldrake has published 5 books.
