The German Society for Applied Biostasis (DGAB) organizes its second international scientific conference. The symposium “Applied Cryobiology – Scientific Symposium on Cryonics” will be held on October 4th to 5th in Dresden, Germany.
The DGAB (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Angewandte Biostase e.V.) was established in May 2006. The association promotes research and the application of methods in biostasis, aiming at life extension and in particular at cryonics.
The conference focuses on the scientific fundamentals of cryonics with topics including biostasis and applied cryonics as well as nanotechnology. The purpose of the symposium is to bring together scientists and cryonics professionals as well as the interested general audience in order to promote the scientific foundations of cryonics, to stimulate discussions and improve personal exchange regarding these topics.
Invited speakers include:
Ben Best – Cryonics Institute
Peter Gouras – Columbia University
Aubrey de Grey – SENS Research Foundation
João Pedro de Magalhães – University of Liverpool
Max More – Alcor Life Extension Foundation
Aschwin de Wolf – Advanced Neural Biosciences
The ‘Robert-Ettinger-Medal for outstanding merits in the fields of cryonics’ will be awarded during the conference.
All talks will be held in English. A proceedings volume will be published.
