news.com.au is carrying a pleasant human interest article on cryonicists in Australia who make use of US cryopreservation services (such as Alcor or the Cryonics Institute). The sixth Australian to be cryopreserved was apparently frozen earlier this month. As the main subject of the article says: "Death seems like a big nothing and I want to see what humans get up to over the coming centuries. Continue reading…
Put Your Name To "Facing Cryonics"
Posted on 2004-03-29 07:49:00 in Cryonics | Regenerative Medicine | Stem Cell Research |
In response to recent legislative attacks on cryonics, the Immortality Institute is managing an initiative called "Facing Cryonics." By associating individual names, faces and messages with the cryonics industry, we are better able to communicate with legislators. It is far easier for politicians to pass bad laws when they are not being engaged on a person-to-person basis. Continue reading…

Mlife.com is running a mostly positive piece on the Cryonics Institute (CI), in business since 1976. You can find out more about the cryonics industry and cryopreservation at CryoNet. Cryonics providers like CI and Alcor provide an important service to the healthy life extension community: the only positive technological response to the blunt recognition that not everyone will live long enough to benefit from near future advances in medicine.

BAR HARBOR, Maine (AP) - Winters in Maine are cold, but the chill outside the Jackson Laboratory is nothing compared to the temperature inside the lab's tanks of liquid nitrogen. Eight round tanks cooled to 320 degrees below zero squat in a windowless basement room. Researchers are filling the tanks with mouse embryos, at a rate of 2,000 embryos a day. Continue reading…

From the Arizona Capitol Times, a discussion and overview of current state government attempts to regulate cryonics providers - specifically Alcor in this case.

As you might recall, this is a new research cryonics company intending to operate in Florida. Suspended Animation (funded by the Life Extension Foundation, who have been putting more money into cryonics of late) will be looking at ways to improve cryonic suspension technologies, freezing the body indefinitely without damaging tissue.
