The Brain Preservation Foundation is an American non-profit organization with the goal of promoting validated scientific research and technical services development in the field of whole brain preservation for long-term static storage, as well as working on the accessibility, affordability, and sustainability of this technology.[3] It also provides public education on topics such as the neural foundations of memory, brain scanning techniques, brain preservation, and mind uploading.

History

On August 27, 2010, the organisation was registered, and during the same year, Saar Wilf donated US$100,000.[2]

In 2014, the foundation received two other major donations: US$43,000 from Androklis Polymenis, and US$33,000 from Steve Aoki.[2]

On February 9, 2016, the Small Mammal Brain Preservation Prize was officially won by the cryobiology research company 21st Century Medicine.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

On March 13, 2018, the Large Mammal Brain Preservation Prize was officially won, again by 21st Century Medicine.[13][14][15][16][17][18]

Prize

In 2010, the Brain Preservation Foundation launched an inducement prize contest with the goal of improving the long-run preservation of human brains. The purpose of preserving a human brain is to allow the mind uploading of the preserved brain's long-term memories if the technology becomes available to do so in the long-run future.[19] The requirements of the Brain Preservation Technology Prize stated that the connectome of a brain had to be preserved in a way that would allow for long-term storage (>100 years).[26] The prize was separated in two stages[26]: preserving a small mammalian brain (e.g., a mouse brain), and a large mammalian brain (e.g., a pig brain)[20]. Both prizes were won by 21st Century Medicine based on a new brain preservation method called Aldehyde-Stabilized Cryopreservation (ASC). ASC was described in a 2015 article by Robert L. McIntyre and Gregory M. Fahy published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal Cryobiology.[21]
