Dr Carlos Orozco Bsc, MSc, ND, PhD, MD, Dr Sc, FPAMS. (RIP 1958-2024)

Dr Carlos Orozco is a scientist, author, speaker and lecturer whose diverse scientific career includes professional training in Biochemistry, Immunology, Biophysics, Epigenetics, Reproductive Medicine, Reproductive Biology, Orthomolecular Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Integrative Medicine, Quantum Physics, and Quantum Biology.

He holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Experimental Biology, majoring in Biochemistry and Biophysics. He holds a Masters Degree in Immunology, and a PhD in Biochemistry and Immunology, with 5 years as a Postdoctoral Fellow. He specialised in Reproductive Medicine, and Reproductive Biology, Gynaecological Oncology, Clinical Nutrition, and Traditional Chinese Medicine. He is the International Vice President for South America’s ‘The World Association for Excellence in Health’ (AMES Mundial), he operates from Australia.

Internationally recognised for the invention of the Key to Coherence, an energy transducer which unlocks the flow of information within a quantum morphic field which results from quantum entanglement by means of resonance and vibrational waves which are closely related to gravitational waves. Inspired through a dream on equations, like many famous scientists in history have experienced, such as Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein and Max Planck among others, the Key to Coherence is able to unleash the endemic power of love combined with the integration of energy through quantum transduction. Dr Orozco’s deep understanding of quantum mechanics, resonance and vibration means humanity can now experience the relationship between the world we see and the four drivers of unseen quantum morphic energy fields. These four quantum fields he has identified are:

1) Intention
2) Purpose
3) Significance, then when combined, induce the expression of the fourth driver:
4) Congruency

Congruency induces the process of ‘how’ everything occurs in our earthly dimension between all human beings and living organisms in the quantum morphic field that is found throughout nature, in both the micro and the macro cosmos. The most important element of this interaction is Love. Dr Carlos has mathematically, geometrically and diagrammatically shown how these invisible forces flow around us so that we can live in harmony with the world surrounding us. Following on from his published book, ‘Coherence’, it is this profound understanding of quantum physics that has influenced him to write a second book, currently in the process of its manifestation, called ‘Congruency; the light that shines within’.

I am a Senior Research Fellow and head of the plasma medicine research group at the Future Industries Institute within University of South Australia. We are investigating the development of low-temperature atmospheric-pressure ionised gas discharge (plasma) technology as a new medical therapy for treatment of chronic wound infections, wound healing, viral infections and cancers. In addition we are applying plasma technology in agriculture, environmental applications and for improving animal welfare. Our plasma technology is underpinned by a detailed fundamental scientific understanding of the physicochemical processes within plasma environments that enables us to tailor the technology to suit each individual application. A major outcome from my research was the invention of a “plasma activated hydrogel therapy” technology, which enables safe and effective plasma treatment of wounds (Patent # WO 2015/123720 A1). In 2019-2020, I took a 12-month hiatus from academia to undertake a secondment with UK’s NHS leading disinfection wipe provider, GAMA Healthcare, in the UK. With GAMA, I progressed plasma technology for healthcare and gained experience in the commercialisation of advanced medical technologies. Upon invitation, I have taken on editorial duties for four major journals. I am Associate Editor for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Transactions in Radiation and Plasma Medical Sciences (IEEE TRPMS) journal since 2016. I am a Board Member on two journals run by the Institute of Physics (IOP): Journal of Physics Communications since 2017 and Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics since 2018. I am Associate Editor for Frontiers in Physics since 2020. I am a keen home beer brewer, fisherman and conservationist, and I enjoy spending time on my hobby farm with my family and friendly flock of chickens.

Professor Hossein is an Independent Theoretical Physics Researcher and Mathematician. He is the holder of a prestigious invitation for Professorship from the Islamic Azad University since 1988. At the age of 12 he had become familiar with Newton’s laws but one year later by 1962 he questioned their validity which initiated the beginning his career in physics. He could not accept infinitive speed and questioned the laws of gravity and time, leading to doubts about the infinite Mass – Energy theory. Seeking answers as to why light has stable speed, he proposed the CPH Theory after a further 26 years of research, by 1987. Ultimately he has scrutinized the interface between relativity and quantum mechanics through a novel approach to the established physical events. The CPH Theory a product of his life’s work, is based on Generalized light velocity from energy into mass. It seeks to answer the questions: 1. Does light speed originate from a natural event? 2. With the creation of decay from electron-positron pair why do the related photons move at a constant speed, when we can change the speed of matter and antimatter? 3. What is the unique characteristic of matter which is convertible to photons that move with constant speed (being the speed of light)?
