Near-death experiences as transformative experiences

CALL FOR PAPERS

We encourage BA, MA and PhD students, as well as early PhDs and postdocs, to contribute research abstracts related to the event's topic areas. Abstracts should be written in English and should not exceed 300 words. Abstracts will receive full consideration if submitted before April 15th, 2025 at bmRldGVjb25mZXJlbmNlIHwgZ21haWwgISBjb20=

Word or PDF attachments preferred, with the message titled "abstract submission".

Panels include, but are not limited to the following questions:

What are the epistemological implications of near-death experiences?

How can such experiences be epistemically transformative?

What is the epistemic status of NDEs-induced metaphysical beliefs? Can NDE’s change metaphysical beliefs?

Does culture influence near death experiences? Does it bear on their potential of being transformative experiences?

How can technology, such as VR, can be used to learn more about the transformative potential of near death experiences? Can virtual mortality be personally transformative?

All submissions will go through a process of blind peer review. (Please write your identifying details in the body of the email, and leave the attached abstract anonymized.) We intend notifications of acceptance to be sent out on or before April 25th, 2025. The conference programme will be announced as soon as review is completed.
