yeah, the idea here is that it might be sufficient, much like cryogenics. their marketing is probably irresponsible, depending on your perspective, but then again you're dead anyway so any shot at a future may be worth it.
unlike cryogenics it will definitely result in a lot of useful and interesting data about the brain, whether it works or not.
- etrautmann 9y agoUndoubtedly true, though good luck passing this by an IRB. The goals of preserving brain state at time of death and learning about the brain from a science perspective are not fully aligned. There's a dot product there, but enough orthogonality that it's duplicitous to sell people a brain preservation service if the true goal is science.
