A known research and speaker in the field of NDE studies, Scott wrote his doctoral dissertation on Near-Death Experiences: Discovering and Living in Unity.

Dr. Taylor has been a skilled trainer for the Monroe Institute for over 30 years, and now serves as its Executive Director. He is author and voice of the best-selling Into the Light series. He also is the creator and facilitator of Monroe Institute’s six-day NDE Intensive, which uses the pathways laid down by NDErs to explore states of consciousness.

He served on the board of International Association for Near-Death Studies and continues to moderate their annual conference.
