Neuroscientists have uncovered the source of a "wave of death" in the brain that appears at the end of consciousness. The latest findings, published in the journal Neurobiology of Disease, shed ...

A new study recorded brain waves while dying people were resuscitated to see what happens during the out-of-body experiences they later describe. CNN values your feedback 1.

Researchers at Paris Brain Institute, coordinated by Séverine Mahon, have shown that a “wave of death” appearing on the flat electroencephalogram is initiated deep in the cortex.

To investigate, the study authors measured electrical activity in the brains of rats as they underwent AD. In doing so, they discovered that the wave of death begins in the excitatory neurons ...

Similar to previous animal experiments, the patients’ gamma waves better synchronized in these hot zones and across brain regions. “These data demonstrate that the human brain can be active during ...

The first-ever recording of a dying human brain has revealed what happens in the final moments of our lives. The recording was captured by accident, but it has solved one of life's great mysteries.

A flair of energy in the brain in a dying patient who had “no blood pressure” or “heart rate” could be evidence of the “soul leaving the body” after death, according to an expert.

In a new study, a group of researchers led by Dr. Joshua Goldberg from the Hebrew University describe a new kind of neurochemical wave in the brain. Their research, published in Nature ...

Researchers studying the brain’s final moments have gained new insight into the “wave of death” that occurs before a brain’s activity fully flatlines.

Recording brain waves while undergoing CPR. In the study, published Thursday in the journal Resuscitation, ... It occurs with death, and there's a brain marker that we've identified.
