Parnia has said he is uncertain the brain produces the mind and has suggested that memory is not [[neuron]]al.<ref>Tim Adams. (2013).

Retrieved 2014-06-03.</ref> He has claimed that research from NDEs may show the "mind is still there after the brain is dead". The neurologist Michael O'Brien has written "most people would not find it necessary to postulate such a separation between mind and brain to explain the events," and suggested that further research is likely to provide a physical explanation for near-death experiences.<ref>Michael O'Brien.

In 2001, Parnia and colleagues investigated [[Out-of-body experience|out of body]] claims by placing figures on suspended boards facing the ceiling, not visible from the floor. Parnia wrote "anybody who claimed to have left their body and be near the ceiling during resuscitation attempts would be expected to identify those targets. If, however, such perceptions are psychological, then one would obviously not expect the targets to be identified." The results were not published in their paper.<ref>Sam Parnia., et al. (2001).
