Dr. Max Rempel claims to have found unexplained DNA sequences in humans that could suggest alien genetic manipulation, though experts remain highly skeptical.
A controversial new study has sparked debate after a geneticist claimed to have uncovered evidence of alien DNA insertions in human genomes.
Dr. Max Rempel, founder of the DNA Resonance Research Foundation, said his team analyzed 581 families from the international 1,000 Genomes Project and found “large sequences” of DNA in 11 families that did not match either parent.
In total, they identified 348 unexplained genetic variants, some from children born before 1990—predating modern gene-editing tools like CRISPR.
“These are preliminary findings, not conclusive,” Rempel cautioned. “We need better datasets and next-generation sequencing to rule out errors. But if validated, the implications are staggering. Humanity may be undergoing genetic transformation.”
Rempel also reviewed DNA from individuals who self-identified as alien abductees, finding anomalies in some cases but not others. He suggested that high-resolution sequencing could confirm whether “alien insertions” exist and even identify possible hybrids.
The researcher speculated that such genetic alterations, if real, might one day lead to unusual human abilities, such as telepathy. He also raised ethical questions about how society should treat individuals carrying non-human DNA.
Skeptics, however, urged caution. Nigel Watson, author of Portraits of Alien Encounters Revisited, warned that “abduction experiences can stem from terrestrial factors,” and that anomalies may simply result from technical errors or unknown natural processes.
Both Rempel and Watson agreed that further research with volunteer families is needed. “If proven, this would be as world-shattering as recovering a flying saucer,” Watson said.
Rempel has called for funding and access to high-quality DNA repositories, while continuing to promote awareness of what he calls “alien hybridization.”
