Microvasculature perfusion failure in cryonics
Under ideal circumstances cryonics patients are stabilized immediately after pronouncement of legal death by restoring blood flow to the brain, lowering temperature, and administering medications. In most cryonics cases, however, there is a delay between pronouncement of legal death and … Continue reading

The red blood cell as a model for cryoprotectant toxicity
Various approaches are available to investigate cryoprotectant toxicity, ranging from theoretical work in organic chemistry to cryopreservation of complete animals. Because resuscitation of complex organisms after cryopreservation is not feasible at the moment, such investigations need to be confined to … Continue reading
