Igor Smirnov is one of the most popular and richest Psychologist who was born on April 5, 1951 in Moscow, Russia.

Smirnov has been characterized in the media as a Rasputin-like character with “almost mystical powers of persuasion”. According to his wife Rusalkina, the Soviet military enlisted Smirnov’s psychotechnology in the 1980s to combat the Mujahideen and treat post-traumatic stress syndrome in Russian soldiers during the war in Afghanistan. Smirnov’s background included military research, and the care of drug addiction and mental illness. He founded the Psychotechnology Research Institute at the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia to work on ideas like “psychocorrection”, a term he used to denote the use of subliminal messages to alter a subject’s will, or even modify a person’s personality without their knowledge.

The Institute caught the attention of Chris Morris and Janet Morris who were reportedly attempting to sell technology to the United States military. The FBI consulted Smirnov regarding the Waco Siege in 1993. Smirnov proposed piping subliminal messages from sect members’ families through the phone lines during negotiations so as to effect the surrender of David Koresh, however the FBI declined the plan. Smirnov died in November 5, 2004, leaving his wife to run the Institute.
