When We Die

What happens in our brains when we die? Where does consciousness come from? And what can out of body experiences teach us about how we create our own realities?

In this episode of How We’re Wired, join evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin as she unpicks the neuroscience of death and consciousness, from brain activity  during near-death experiences, to the complexities of how we embody ourselves. 

With special thanks to Gillian, Olaf Blanke, and Kevin Nelson.
