7th Alcor Conference

$395 rate to increase after Friday, Aug. 31

 

Join us in Scottsdale, Arizona, for the 7th Alcor Conference October 5-7,
2007, and discover the world's leader in the most ambitious life extension
endeavor ever: CRYONICS. 

 

Don't miss this weekend of presentations about the cryopreservation process,
the possibility of repairing cryopreserved individuals, and how present day
technology and research are moving the industry forward. A compelling
speaker lineup highlights the rich history of the cryonics industry,
addresses religious and ethical considerations, and offers expert answers to
your common questions. 

 

Possibilities for living longer will also be explored. Ever wonder whether
regenerative medicine developed from stem cell technology can stop
age-related diseases? Find out from Dr. Michael West of Advanced Cell
Technology, a leading biotechnology firm making headlines around the world.
Plus, gain inside information about the human aging experiment conducted at
the Kronos Science Laboratory. 

 

Registration includes all meals, a tour of the Alcor Foundation, and
opportunities to make lasting friendships with Alcor members, supporters and
