Does science prove the existence of the soul? Here award-winning neurosurgeon Michael Egnor explores the evidence.

We are made up of cells and tissue, and completely controlled by a material organ in our heads: the brain. In this video, Dr. Michael Egnor makes the case—based on 40 years of practice and over 7,000 brain surgeries—that science has gotten it all wrong.
