Frozen brain awaits resurrection in the future

A Chinese science fiction writer decided to freeze the brain in hopes that future technology could help her revive.

Chinese writers freeze their brains to wait for their resurrection

Before his death from pancreatic cancer, 61-year-old writer Do Hong decided to agree to donate his brain for experiments after his death. After she passed away on May 30, Chinese doctors quickly moved her brain to the US to freeze.

Ms. Do had to pay $ 120,000 for moving brains from China to Scottsdale, Arizona, USA for Life Extension Organization Alcor to freeze. She believes that although current technology cannot make her brain work again, advances in future cryogenic technology will help her revive. However, Alcor also said they are only responsible for freezing the brain, not responsible for reviving her in the future.

Ms. Do began to learn about frozen techniques while treating pancreatic cancer. Later, she wrote a book entitled "The Three-Body Problem" , talking about frozen storage. However, before she knew Alcor, she never thought it would be possible to apply that frozen technique.

With the help of Lu-son's son-in-law and meeting Alcor's expert, the writer came to the decision to preserve the brain by frozen method after his death.

"My mother-in-law said that frozen technology could have a breakthrough in the next 50 years is still a mystery, but she still wants to participate in the experiment," Lu Shen told People's Daily.

Although there are many opinions that it is impossible to bring a person from death, no matter what age, Mrs. Do's family is optimistic. Her daughter expressed that optimism with a status line on social media, shortly after she died "See you in the future".
