#Near-Death Experiences

In a groundbreaking development in the field of neuroscience, a study led by researchers from the University of Liège has introduced a novel model explaining the mechanisms behind near-death experiences (NDEs). The model, called NEPTUNE (Neurophysiological Evolutionary Psychological Theory Understanding Near-death Experience), offers an integrative framework based on empirical findings across neurobiology, psychology, and evolutionary theory. This advancement provides a more cohesive understanding of NDEs, often described as profound episodes of disconnected consciousness triggered by life-threatening situations.
