Big Picture Science - Skeptic Check: Near Death Experiences
REPEAT
Near death experiences
can be profound and even life changing. People describe seeing bright lights,
staring into the abyss, or meeting dead relatives. Many believe these
experiences to be proof of an afterlife.
But now, scientists are
studying these strange events and gaining insights into the brain and
consciousness itself. Will we uncover the scientific underpinning of these
near-death events?
Guests:
- Steve Paulson - executive producer of To the Best of Our Knowledge for Wisconsin Public Radio

- Christoph Koch - neuroscientist at the Allen Institute in Seattle and chief scientist of the Tiny Blue Dot Foundation in Santa Monica California
