Mysterious CIA Medical Cases: Stanford Professor Garry Nolan on UAP Contact, Energy Weapons, Havana Syndrome, and How Alien Life Might Really Look

If you’ve ever wondered, “What’s actually real when it comes to UAPs, aliens, and nonhuman intelligence?”...today, you’re getting real answers.

This episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown cuts through decades of speculation, misinformation, and stigma to bring you hard science, firsthand research, and never-before-shared insights from one of the most credible scientists studying UAPs today.

For years, the public has been left guessing—Are UFOs real? Are aliens visiting us? Are people actually being harmed? And why won’t mainstream science touch this topic?

That changes today.

We're sitting down with Dr. Garry Nolan, Professor of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Sol Foundation (a leading research institute focused on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), and a featured expert in the hit documentary The Age of Disclosure.

Dr. Nolan explains how he scientifically proved the infamous Atacama “alien” skeleton was not extraterrestrial, revealing what the DNA of true nonhuman life might actually look like if we ever encounter it.

We also explore his classified-adjacent work studying UAPs, including deeply unsettling cases of alleged human injuries linked to possible UAP encounters and energy weapons, and the shocking implications these cases may have for regions of the human brain tied to intuition, perception, and consciousness itself. Dr. Nolan shares what he’s uncovered from analyzing alleged UAP artifacts, including materials connected to Roswell, and how his lab studies metal fragments containing anomalies that appear to defy known physics.

This episode goes where most won’t—and does so with data, restraint, and scientific rigor.

We're breaking down:

- Why the Atacama “alien” skeleton fooled the world, and how science finally solved it

- What alien or nonhuman DNA would actually look like (and why Hollywood gets it wrong)

- What UAP-related human injury cases may reveal about the brain, intuition, and perception

- How alleged UFO materials and Roswell fragments are analyzed at the atomic level

- What Dr. Nolan believes the true goal of nonhuman intelligence might be

- Why he thinks aliens should allow humanity to evolve naturally before further interference

- What he personally witnessed as a child involving UAPs and nonhuman intelligence

- How he responds to skepticism and backlash from fellow scientists

- And whether humanity faces a physical or existential risk from alien contact

This is not science fiction. This is cutting-edge science colliding with the biggest mystery of all time.

Once you hear this, you may never look at reality the same way again.
