Brian Wowk is a biophysicist employed as a Senior Scientist at 21st Century Medicine, Inc., a company specializing in low temperature preservation of tissue and organs for medical applications. He holds M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in medical physics, specializing in radiation oncology physics and magnetic resonance imaging. The premise of cryonics is the preservation of sufficient information, especially brain information, to permit recovery of the original person. Studies show steady progress in the quality with which brain information can be preserved under ideal conditions. However the absence of demonstrable reversibility, and the vast variety of conditions under which cryopreservations can take place, introduce uncertainty in the “information theoretic” paradigm of cryonics. Dr. Wowk discusses what cryobiology says about the prospects of cryonics actually working.
Brian Wowk, from 21st Century Medicine, presents: "Metastable vitrification of cryoprotectant solutions" at CRYO2013, the annual conference of the Society for Cryobiology, held July 28-31 2013 in Washington, DC.

21CM Patent: Some answers and questions X-Message-Number: 12464 Date: Tue, 28 Sep 1999 01:19:37 -0400 From: Mike Darwin < > Subject: 21CM Patent: Some answers and questions There have been a number of comments and speculations on the recently published 21st Century Medicine (21CM) assigned patent on novel cryoprotectants. In particular, Robert Ettinger and Thomas Donaldson have expressed puzzlement about the lack of supporting data for the high rates of cooling claimed, and also as to the "legitimacy" of the core patent claims themselves. For instance, Ettinger writes (as quoted in the f … ore to preserve embryos and cell suspensions, but believe they have priority in application to tissues, organs, and animals. Obviously, there are potentially interesting questions in patent law--both as to the relation between these inventors and prior users of glycol ethers, and between these inventors and later users of new variations and applications." Donaldson also states: "There is also some question in my own mind about whether or not some of the perfusion methods desc … ver conventional cryoprotectants in many situations. However, that is *not* the application that is being claimed in the 21CM patent. Rather, it is the use of these compounds in clever ways to achieve *vitrification*: cryopreservation in the absence of damaging amounts of ice, wherein the organ system or tissueis maintained in a largely or completely glassy or otherwise non-crystalline state. Freezing is a workable method for cryopreservation of of many cells, small organisms … ion sufficient to permit vitrification and cooling until >vitrified; and the application of this to any organ, tissue, or animal.
