Research into Near-Death Experiences (University of Kiel)

This website contains information on NDE research projects that are organized at the University of Kiel (Germany). The projects are interdisciplinary, conducting research regarding near-death experiences or comparable phenomena, including related scientific problems. How are we to explain near-death experiences? NDEs can be treated as borderline cases concerning the philosophy of science which could open a new perspective on one of the fundamental questions of human existence: What do we mean by “consciousness”? How can we describe the relationship between what we call mind, soul and body? How can we describe the relationship between mind and matter?
