CRC Comment :
This particular ordeal is only one of many that have involved the unregulated practice of cryonics. The CRC has stated several times in the past and will continue to say it over and over again, situations such as the Robbins case cry out for regulation. Whether cryonics companies are in the right or in the wrong, in cases like this, families are still getting hurt. With that said we have to ask, when will State and/or Federal lawmakers step up to begin the process of strict regulation of these companies? It is the CRC's opinion that cryonics companies should fall under regulation similar to the funeral industry. In closing we’d like to say that our hearts goes out to Darlene Robbins and her family and that we are truly sorry that they have had to experience this situation.
Case presentations involving cryonics companies practicing their unregulated "science" within licensed healthcare facilities are currently being developed and will be presented soon to several interested associations. All presentations will be made available on this website. Thank you for your interest.
PURPOSE OF THE CRC
Welcome to the Coalition for the Regulation of Cryonics (CRC) website. The CRC initiative is to actively promote and lobby for the regulation of cryonics. Cryonics is the unregulated practice of freezing the body of a person who has died from a disease in hopes of restoring life at some future time when a cure for the disease has been developed.
NOTICE
The CRC is currently looking for the following professionals to join our cause.
Bioethicists
Attorneys
Physicians
Healthcare Professionals and Executives
Politicians
Lobbyist
Activists
Scientific Advisors
Also needed are established organizations (government or private) who have an interest in the regulation of cryonics.
If interested please send a letter of interest and credentials to:
info@regulatecryonics.org
Currently there are many individuals within the cryonics population who for various reasons wish to derail any attempt of regulation.
All interest letters will be reviewed and all credentials must be verifiable. Thanks for your understanding.
