Neuroscientist Explores Brain Preservation for Eternal Life

Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Guardian

Neuroscientist Dr. Ariel Zeleznikow-Johnston advocates for brain preservation as a means to potentially achieve immortality, arguing that current technology could allow us to pause biological processes until future medical advancements can cure terminal conditions. His book, "The Future Loves You," explores the possibility of using techniques like aldehyde-stabilised cryopreservation to preserve brain structures, with the hope of future revival through advanced technologies such as nanomedicine or mind-uploading. While controversial, Zeleznikow-Johnston believes this approach could offer a new perspective on life and death.

Scientists Successfully Revive Frozen Human Brain Tissue After 18 Months

Originally Published 1 year ago — by Global Times

Chinese researchers at Fudan University have successfully revived a human brain that was frozen for 18 months using a new cryopreservation method called MEDY. This breakthrough, published in Cell Reports Methods, preserves neural cell functionality and structural integrity, potentially revolutionizing research into neurological disorders and future human cryopreservation. The achievement has sparked significant interest and discussion about the future possibilities of cryonics.
