Human Cryopreservation Procedures

Human Cryopreservation Procedures is an e-book written by Aschwin de Wolf and Charles Platt, first published on January 10, 2020. In the book of over 700 pages the authors have tried to compile existing information describing standby, stabilization, transport (SST), and vitrification procedures in the field of cryonics. It is written as a reference work rather than as a teaching manual.

Since the book has been written for the Alcor Life Extension Foundation, it focuses primarily on procedures and equipment that are specific to Alcor. However, approaches at the Cryonics Institute and at Suspended Animation, Inc. have been summarized where practical to do so.

The latest version of the book was published on May 23, 2022.
