UVA Neuroscientist Reveals Her Take On The Telepathy Tapes | Dr. Marina Weiler, PhD (Episode 171)
Can consciousness exist independently of the brain? Dr. Marina Weiler, Assistant Professor at the University of Virginia's Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS), shares research on mediumship, out-of-body experiences, remote viewing, and non-speaking children with psychic abilities. A neuroscientist specializing in consciousness studies, Dr. Weiler explains how rigorous scientific methods are being used to investigate phenomena suggesting the mind operates beyond the physical brain.
We discuss the award-winning Bigelow Institute research on Brazilian medium Chico Xavier, who produced over 500 books and 10,000 letters attributed to deceased individuals despite only elementary school education. Dr. Weiler shares current DOPS studies using EEG and eye-tracking technology to investigate out-of-body experiences and telepathy in non-speaking individuals. She describes veridical cases including a three-year-old who accurately reported what his parents were doing while asleep in another room, and addresses the controversy surrounding The Telepathy Tapes podcast.
A grounded conversation about consciousness research, afterlife evidence, grief, and what decades of scientific investigation reveals about survival after death.
