The NDERF Team.
Jeffrey Long is a medical doctor specializing in the practice of radiation oncology, using radiation to treat cancer. As a scientist, Jeff founded NDERF in 1998. He wanted to know if NDEs were real by directly asking the NDErs themselves. The answer is a resounding YES! As a result of his research, he is the author of the New York Times best seller, "Evidence of the Afterlife: The Science of Near-Death Experiences." He also wrote "God and the Afterlife: The Groundbreaking New Evidence for God and Near-Death Experience." As a leading NDE researcher and a medical doctor, Jeff has appeared on national media including O'Reilly Factor, NBC Today, ABC with Peter Jennings, the Dr. Oz Show, the History Channel, the Learning Channel, and National Geographic. He has also appeared on Fox News Houston and at the New York Academy of Sciences.
Jody Long is a retired attorney, was licensed in Washington, New Mexico, Louisiana, and the Navajo Nation. She is webmaster for the Near Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF) for the past 13 years and provides support and a forum for NDErs and those who want to know about the afterlife. She has several decades of experience researching paranormal and related phenomena. She is also webmaster for After Death Communication Research Foundation (ADCRF) www.adcrf.org and the other consciousness experience website which is everything that is not an NDE or ADC (OBERF) www.oberf.org. Jody helped with "Evidence of the Afterlife," the New York Times best selling NDE book. She has written "God’s Fingerprints: Impressions of Near Death Experiences," which is the first book of it's genre published in mainland China.
We continued to grow and attract foreign visitors by translating the website into their language. We have had many volunteers and I am grateful for all of them!
There are 3 websites devoted to different aspects of consciousness. www.nderf.org (Near death experience), www.adcrf.org (After death communication), and www.oberf.org (everything else that is not a NDE or ADC). These three websites have grown to the largest of their kind in the world. The websites are free. They also have a way to share their experiences with us. Jeff reviews them and I then post them to the website so all can read these remarkable experiences.
We also personally answer the growing mounds of e-mail. There are many experiences on all three websites to post. Then there is media who wants to talk to experiencers. There are many people who contact me to post books and articles. So, this really is a second full time job to maintain the websites.
The culmination of the early years was the book Evidence of the Afterlife, the Science of Near Death Experience, which was a New York Times best seller. For me, it was writing From Soul to Soulmate: Bridges from the Near Death Experience.
