On the heels of our Annual Strategic Meeting earlier this month, and with the finishing touches just put on our facility refresh, a bus pulled up to Alcor full of the brightest young minds in cryonics.

Rising Leaders in Biostasis is a program built for the up-and-coming generation of cryonicists, and this year's group came from all around the world. They were among the first to see the refreshed facility, they met the newest members of our team, and they got a close look at where Alcor is headed.

There is a special kind of energy when you put that much young talent in one room. The questions were sharp, the ideas were big, and more than a few of us walked away feeling recharged about the work ahead.

Cryonics has always been a long game, and it takes each generation showing up for the next. This month the next one showed up, and we can't wait to see what they accomplish in the years ahead.

The most visible change in a year of changes at Alcor.

After a long run out front, Alcor's original building sign came down this week - and a fresh one with the new Alcor logo went up in its place.

The old sign isn't going anywhere, though. It's being kept and will be put to use as a piece of Alcor's history, a reminder of how long the organization has been here and how far it has come.

And the new sign looks even better at night - more on that in a future post.

Happy Monday! Here's some photos Sam, our social media strategist, captured last week of our fog show. 🥶

As mentioned in previous posts, Alcor's office is getting a full makeover. While we dust off the facility's history, we've found a lot of neat relics and decor along the way.

The framed quote by the inventor of the first liquid-fueled rocket, Robert H. Goddard, felt especially apt.

Meet Kaiya and Alyssa, Alcor's newest two membership coordinators.

Construction for our facility refresh has pushed most of the staff into makeshift offices, so Kaiya and Alyssa have been learning the ropes from Diane in the middle of it all. They've been picking things up fast and having fun along the way. Before long, they'll be among the voices on the other end when you reach out to Alcor.

A new door is opening at Alcor.

This year has brought significant change - with much more in the works. As we head towards our upcoming Annual Strategic Meeting on Sept 5th, we're reshaping our facility so that the space begins to reflect the progress already happening from within.

Stay tuned.

Alcor's engineers pulling thick strands of fog from a giant liquid nitrogen dewar with a gravity siphon pipe, while transferring a neuropod into long-term storage.

As soon as the massive cork is removed, warm room air rushes in and instantly condenses into dense fog when it hits the ultra-cold nitrogen vapors rising from the surface. On humid monsoon days in Arizona, it gets so thick you can barely see inside.

Clearing the fog is critical. The team needs clear visibility to carefully slide the new neuropod into its tight spot among the others.
