The Brain Preservation Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the science of brain preservation and cryonics. Founded to support research into techniques that could preserve the brain's structure and information content, the organization funds scientific studies and promotes dialogue between cryonics researchers and mainstream neuroscience. The foundation has sponsored research competitions and grants aimed at developing better preservation methods, particularly focusing on whole-brain preservation techniques that could theoretically enable future revival or mind uploading. The organization operates at the intersection of neuroscience, cryobiology, and life-extension research, seeking to establish brain preservation as a legitimate scientific field.
