And become part of a dynamic exchange for experts and enthusiasts around the topics of cryonics and life extension.
Cryopreservation is a scientific triumph and an outcome of decades of research. We try to uncover how it works, what origin it came from, and the challenges it faces.
Non-human organisms like turtles and clams have been known to live for centuries. They age slowly and some species even express senescence. Understanding the factors behind this may have applications to human longevity.
There is a rich corpus of intellectual thought from Eastern cultures that gives us the tools to look at death and eternal life through a different lens.
Cryonics and Cyborgs are amusing topics for longevity enthusiasts. Discover here which of these two paths fits your longevity goals.
There are fascinating characters in myths, mythologies and works of fiction over the centuries who achieved immortality, but it didn’t necessarily end well for them.
Cryopreservation demands precision, and is time-sensitive. Using medical robots for some of these tasks can deliver these requirements and set the tone for the future of cryonics.
Preserving human bodies at sub-zero temperatures while also not destroying their cellular structure requires many procedures to be followed in a time-bound manner. Cryopreservation is the culmination of all these procedures, leading to a state of suspended animation of the patient.
Preservation of the brain’s information is being explored through chemical fixation. As against focusing on preserving the brain’s structure, this method looks at the matter present inside.
The debate about the posthuman body involves art. This article explores three artists who use technology to create posthuman forms of life, challenging human perception.
The evolution of cryopreservation can be traced back to many key moments, which include the preservation of a murdered patient, pet cryopreservation, and the first case of cryopreservation after euthanasia
Non-human organisms like turtles and clams have been known to live for centuries. They age slowly and some species even express senescence. Understanding the factors behind this may have applications to human longevity.
Cryopreservation demands precision and accuracy in preparing a cryonics patient before they are stored at -196°C. These procedures should be completed in a narrow window of time after legal death.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ spread great joy amongst his disciples, underlining the value ascribed to life. Stretching this to modern times, cryonics seeks to achieve just this, i.e., life extension.
Brain health in seniors will be more important than ever as the average human lifespan increases. Fortunately there are some scientifically proven methods to maintain cognitive fitness as we age.

Mutations can cause diseases; this includes progeric syndromes, leading to accelerated ageing. Mutations are also intertwined with DNA damage and contribute to the normal ageing process.
Performing cryonics instead of euthanasia before clinical death would give those facing imminent death today a chance to live in the future. Furthermore, under those circumstances, cryonics would stand a better chance of success.
Ageing is a complex process evolving the accumulation of cell damage and pathologies across a wide spectrum of bodily systems. Exploring some of the main theories on why humans age.
Religious people live longer, much longer. How do we explain the correlation between longevity and spirituality? Science offers a few explanations.
We intend to build a vibrant online platform that acts both as an information hub for content on the topic of life extension as well as a community of enthusiasts, experts, service providers, startups and investors.
Our focus is to contribute to the field of longevity, with a particular focus on cryonics, by providing an elaborated information platform where people can learn about the industry, openly discuss and present critical or controversial ideas, as well as be assured of the quality of the content presented. To achieve this, our content is mainly provided by specialists who are experts in their field.
