- UCLA-led team finds a stem-cell derived mechanism that could lead to regenerative therapies for heart damage ()
A UCLA-led team has identified an essential internal control mechanism that can promote the maturation of human stem cell-derived heart muscle cells, offering a deeper understanding of how heart muscle cells develop from their immature fetal stage to their mature adult form. The findings, published in the peer-reviewed journal Circulation, could lead to new therapies […]
- Frozen in Time: Examining the Latest Frontiers in Cryopreservation Technology ()
Cryopreservation has underpinned biomedical research for many decades – and offers many exciting new opportunities ahead, including the long-term storage of cells, tissues and organs for therapeutic applications. “Cryopreservation is the preservation of biological materials at very low temperatures,” describes Dr. Roman Bauer, a lecturer at the University of Surrey who is developing computational and […]

- Scientific speculation ()
Scientific speculation refers to ideas or concepts that are proposed in the scientific domain but lack solid empirical evidence or support. It is a form of speculative thinking based on logical reasoning, theoretical extrapolations, or hypotheses that have not yet been confirmed or experimentally verified. In some cases, scientific speculation can serve as a starting […]

- Near-mode cryonics: A thought experiment ()
Set-up: In a world that’s otherwise the same, an anthropomorphic God comes to you with a gun and a check, and offers you the following deal, should you accept it. (God can perfectly see the future and is honest.) Dilemma: God will give you a check of X USD if you accept to be immediately […]
- Astronauts that hibernate on long spaceflights is not just for sci-fi. We could test it in 10 years. ()
“We need to fine tune everything before we can apply it to humans. But I would say that 10 years is a realistic timeline.” The first hibernation studies with human subjects could be feasible within a decade, a European Space Agency (ESA) researcher thinks. Such experiments would pave the way for a science-fiction-like approach to […]

- Cryonics Advantages. ()
Cryonics is a procedure that involves preserving a human or animal body at extremely low temperatures in the hopes of reviving or reanimating it in the future. While some consider it a controversial method, here are some potential advantages of cryonics: Life preservation: Cryonics offers the possibility of preserving life after death by waiting for […]
- See inside a facility that freezes people and pets after they die and stores their preserved remains upside down in cryostat chambers ()
Throughout history, people have tried to find ways to cheat death, but lately, it’s a topic that seems to be on the minds of many of Silicon Valley’s super-rich. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel are some of the tech elite who have invested millions of dollars in […]

- Modified pig-to-human heart transplant had unexpected changes in heart’s conduction system ()
Electrocardiogram (ECG) measures taken after the first pig-to-human heart transplant found significantly different electrical conduction characteristics compared to those seen in native pig hearts (pig heart transplanted in a pig). Common ECG measures are typically shorter in a pig than in a human, yet, in the Jan. 2022 pig-to-human heart transplant, these ECG measures were […]
- Why cryonics is controversial? An answer by the OpenAI Chat bot in December 2022. ()
Me: Why cryonics is controversial? OpenAI Chat Bot: Cryonics, or the storage of human bodies or organs at very low temperatures for the purpose of resuscitating them at a later date, is a controversial subject for several reasons. First of all, cryonics is not a scientifically proven technique and there is no proof that the […]
- OpenAI Chat: What do you think about cryonics? ()
Me/Jonathan Després: What do you think about cryonics? OpenAI Chat (https://chat.openai.com/chat): Cryonics is a speculative and controversial concept that involves the freezing of a human body or brain in the hope that advanced medical technologies will eventually be developed to allow the person to be revived and restored to health. While the idea of cryonics […]
