Building a way to preserve long-term memories.
Nectome is a neuroscience startup that aims to preserve the brain and keep all its memories intact. The company is building the next generation of tools to preserve the connectome. The connectome is all the connections called synapses between neurons in the brain. Researchers from the company is now learning to manipulate individual memories, building advanced brain prosthetics, and reverse-engineering the brain.
Nectome aims to preserve a person’s body and brain at the time of legal death with the goal of future revival, focusing on preserving neural connections and brain detail for long-term viability. They frame this as a life-affirming option at end-of-life, positioning preservation as a pathway toward potential future revival based on extensive scientific preservation.
The service/product is described as whole-body/human preservation intended to maintain the body and brain in extremely high detail immediately after legal death, with the objective of tracing neuronal connections and synapses for potential future revival. The materials indicate a protocol designed to preserve an individual for hundreds of years with the possibility of revival once science advances sufficiently, and an emphasis on early post-mortem preservation.
Who it’s for: Individuals nearing end of life or seeking a life-extension/possible future revival option; people interested in long-term preservation of brain/body connectivity for potential future revival.
