Quantum evidence of nonlocal consciousness during clinical death

The Innovation March 1, 2026 Álex Escolà-Gascón, Kenneth Drinkwater, Andrew Denovan et al.

A large-scale, randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial across 13 hospitals in the UK and Spain tested whether the human mind can access information during clinical death when exposed to auditory stimuli governed by quantum entanglement, synchronized with a 127-qubit IBM quantum computer. During cardiopulmonary arrest, neurophysiological biomarkers were measured. After reanimation, 142 survivors completed recall tests and near-death experience scales. Recall lucidity increased as cerebral oxygenation dropped, and near-death experiences correlated with neuroplasticity during arrest. Biomarker models explained up to 56.8% of variance in recall. The authors argue these findings suggest consciousness may persist during clinical death, quantum-bound and detectable.
