Carboncopies Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing research and public understanding of whole brain emulation (WBE) and mind uploading—the theoretical process of transferring or copying a human mind to a digital substrate. The foundation supports interdisciplinary work spanning neuroscience, computer science, philosophy, and cognitive science to explore the technical, ethical, and philosophical dimensions of substrate-independent minds.

The organization functions as a research and advocacy hub within the transhumanist and futurist communities, convening experts and funding projects that investigate the feasibility and implications of mind uploading. Its work bridges academic research with public discourse on digital consciousness, personal identity, and the long-term future of human existence.
