Abstract:
In early May 2016, reports of a bizarre study to attempt a reversal of brain death made the headlines, but there was not even a squeak from the authorities. The "Reanima Project" is a collaboration between an Indian surgeon, Himanshu Bansal, and a US-based biotech company, Bioquark Inc. The research will be conducted by Bansal's own biotech company, Revita Life Sciences, at his Anupam hospital in Rudrapur, a city in Uttarakhand state.
