When your heart stops, does your brain go silent — or does it do something no one expected?
For decades, medicine treated the moments after cardiac arrest as a black box — unknowable, unworthy of study. Recent research has shattered that assumption. Scientists have now recorded a surge of gamma wave activity in dying brains — a signal linked to conscious experience — and the findings have ignited fierce debate about what it means for organ donation, end-of-life care, and the legal definition of death itself.
Inside, you'll discover:
– The physiological cascade that unfolds inside a brain during cardiac arrest
– Why gamma wave surges reignite debate over consciousness near death
– How defining "death" itself became a live medical and legal question
Part of the What Science Says About… series — evidence-based answers to humanity's biggest questions.
Step into the science of dying — read on.
