Elisabeth Fischer Targ (August 4, 1961 - July 18, 2002) was an American psychiatrist specializing in psychic phenomena and the role of spirituality in health and healing. Targ produced a series of papers investigating the effects of prayer on AIDS patients, attempting to test the theory with a high degree of experimental rigor, with questionable results that eventually were not confirmed by a study published after her death. She died of a brain tumor on July 18, 2002. ==Background== Elisabeth Fischer Targ was born on August 4, 1961, daughter of Russell and Joan Targ, granddaughter to William Targ and niece to chess world champion Bobby Fischer. Targ skipped two grades before completing public school, graduating from Palo Alto High School at the age of fifteen and earning her undergraduate degree and her medical degree at Stanford University. Targ inherited from her father, an active researcher in CIA-sponsored remote viewing experiments, an interest in parapsychology. Targ participated in many games and experiments, primarily relating to remote viewing and precognition, while growing up - guessing what her birthday and Christmas presents were before opening them, as well as the outcomes of horse races and presidential elections. She was diagnosed with and ultimately died from one of the diseases whose treatment she had been studying, the malignant brain tumour glioblastoma multiforme. Targ's decline and death was watched with great interest by the community of remote healers she worked with, who prayed for her, often arriving at her house to offer their assistance while she was undergoing treatment. On July 18, 2002 - weeks short of her 41st birthday and after several unsuccessful attempts to treat the cancer with radiation and surgery - Targ died.〔
