In this epsiode of the Cryosphere Chat we discuss: ● The research proposal we submitted to BRLS● Why slow growth could be an existential risk to cryonics● Our review of the Fixation vs. Vitrification discussion● Why there are so many autistic cryonicistsLinks:Fixation vs. Virtification DiscussionBiostasis Pacific NorthwestI’ll see ya later mom...

There has long been debate in the cryonics community on whether the best procedure for preserving patients is to use chemicals to fixate the brain or to perfuse cryoprotectants and use cryogenic temperatures to vitrify the body (as Alcor, Tomorrow Bio, and Cryonics Institute do).

We brought together two of the best researchers in the field to help us understand each procedure including what we care about preserving in the brain, the strengths and weakness of each approach, whether one approach favors biological reanimation vs. brain emulation, and more.
