There and back: UVA psychiatrist researches near-death experiences

Research on Near-Death Experiences

Dr. Bruce Greyson, a UVA psychiatrist, has been studying near-death experiences, where individuals die and are revived.

A near-death experience can significantly impact someone's life. Greyson and his team at the UVA School of Medicine's Division of Perceptual Studies investigate these experiences and ways to support those who have them.

Most who have near-death experiences say, 'I can't tell you what happened. There are no words for it,' and I believe that.

Greyson notes that the nature of what happens after death is beyond human imagination, making speculation pointless.
