Immortalist Society - Definition

The Immortalist Society is a charitable trust [501(c)3] organization devoted to research and education in the areas of cryonics and life extension. Every two months The Immortalist Society publishes its flagship journal THE IMMORTALIST, which is sent free to Members of the Cryonics Institute, but must be paid-for by subscribers or Immortalist Society Members who do not join the Cryonics Institute.

The Immortalist Society was founded by Robert Ettinger and it is particularly supportive of the work of the Cryonics Institute. Donations to the Immortalist Society Research Fund are given to finance the work of Dr. Yuri Pichugin, the full-time Russian cryobiologist employed by the Cryonics Institute to develop vitrification mixture, improve perfusion protocol and find formulations to minimize cold ischemia (a concern for organ transplantation).
