Brain activity surges in dying patients, potentially explaining NDEs.

Scientists observed a surge in gamma wave brain activity in dying patients, even after their hearts stopped, which may help explain near-death experiences. The study challenges the belief that the brain dies with the rest of the body and suggests that people may retain a certain level of consciousness as they die. The lead author of the study aims to collect more data on dying human brains in the future to better understand the human death experience.
