Background to Cryonic Services Australia

Now a little more about CSA.  When we started looking at what it takes to secure a future cryonic suspension in Australia, a range of questions quickly came up.  Is it affordable?  How do I do it?  Which cryonics provider is right for me?  How do I organize life insurance?  What happens when I can no longer obtain life insurance? What are the estate planning implications?  What do I actually have to administratively do?  What documentation do I need and how do I complete it?  What are the international implications should I choose an overseas cryonics provider? How do I have funds for the time when I am revived?   And a host of other complicated questions.

We decided that we needed a “one stop” doorway to eliminate these complexities.  For a nominal fee, CSA would do this. The idea is that CSA will standardize all these requirements and, in doing so, spread the cost over all our clients keeping the total cost per client low.  We believe we can achieve it.  For organizing and coordinating a standard package of documentation, agreements with the cryonics suspension organizations, life insurance, trust set up, some estate planning, and some basic legal work we believe we can keep our fee between $1,500 to $4,500 depending on your requirements.  Additionally, although it is not our primary role, we would also have the resourcing and capability to handle a client’s extra requirements, if desired.

You can get an idea from this web site what we are trying to do with CSA.  I should add that CSA will not only be there to supply clients for Stasis Systems Australia, but we also have the capability of organizing your suspension with the overseas US organizations, such as Alcor and Cryonics Institute.  This can be a stop gap measure until Stasis Systems Australia is up and running, or some clients may decide that the overseas facilities may be more suited to their needs because of their proven long history.

General background

First, let me say that this site, other than the blog, is not yet live.  While this site is still a work in progress, you are welcome to look at it to get an idea of where we are heading.  Also, please feel free to make any comments or seek any information you wish.

I would like to try, in this blog series, to give an idea of our thoughts behind forming Cryonics Services Australia and the journey we are traveling in developing this organization.  Peter Tsolakides, a director of CSA, is also associated with Cryonics Services Australia (CSA) are also associated with Stasis Systems Australia, the organization working to build the first cryonics facility in Australia.

I think it is important to understand at the outset that we are a group that has a vital interest in cryonics and in cryonics’ success.  We also believe that the more people participating in cryonics results in  increased levels of research and scientific/medical advances in fields important to cryonics.  Some of the more obvious advances include longevity due to medical advances and reversal of aging processes; curing major diseases; biological nanotechnology; improved suspension techniques; tissue cloning; and cell rejuvenation.

Before getting into some of the details, let me briefly explain the difference between what Stasis Systems Australia will do and what Cryonics Services Australia will do.

Stasis Systems Australia Ltd. is a non profit organization working towards building the first cryonics facility in Australia.  When built, Stasis Systems Australia will have the professional capability to handle cryonic suspensions and storage.  At the same time when we developed the idea for Stasis Systems Australia, we thought it would be very useful to provide a “one-stop” capability to allow clients to more readily participate in cryonics.  That is what Cryonics Service Australia Pty Ltd (CSA) will do.  It would handle marketing and coordinate all the financial, legal, and administrative requirements associated with cryonics.  CSA is a more commercial activity and has been set up as a for profit organization.  The different structures of Stasis Systems Australia and CSA allow them to each develop their own expertise and best pursue their objectives in the environment they operate.
