Brain Preservation Foundation

The Brain Preservation Foundation (BPF) is an American nonprofit organization with the goal of furthering research in whole brain preservation. It was founded in May 2009, and was incorporated in Delaware on August 27, 2010. The president and co-founder is Kenneth Hayworth.

On February 9, 2016, 21st Century Medicine won BPF's Small Mammal Brain Preservation Prize. On March 13, 2018, 21CM won the Large Mammal Brain Preservation Prize. Aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation (ASC) was used in both cases.

As of 2018, BPF does not currently support the offering of ASC, or any other preservation method, to human patients.
