[extropy-chat] Freeze dryonics anyone?

[Max M]

There's this link on freeze drying stemm cells.

"Researchers are honing a technique to create dried stem cells that can 
be revived just by adding water. The 'instant' cells might make mobile 
therapies for remote regions or the battlefield."


So perhaps that was an idea instead of cryonics :-)

No seriously, it is most likely more difficult to pull out the water 
than it is to freeze the cells without damage, but then again, one never 
knows where progress takes us in the long run.
