The future of cryonics

What lies in the future for cryonics - the practice of low-temperature suspended animation of people who have died of an incurable disease, in the hope of a future cure? This London Futurists Hangout on Air features a discussion between an international panel of people with practical experience of the world of cryonics: Max More, Anders Sandberg, Natasha Vita-More, and Garret Smyth. The discussion covers: • Recent developments in the world of cryonics, and anticipated future improvements; • Why has the take-up of cryonics been comparatively low so far, and what steps might change that state of affairs? • Objections to cryonics - and responses to the objections; • Cryonics in context - new attitudes towards death and technology.
