Overview
Cryopreservation is a process that freezes biological materials to preserve them for extended periods, stopping cell metabolism and allowing for long-distance transport and storage. This technique has been used to conserve plant species with unique genetic makeup and has the potential to revolutionize the field of biology. Researchers like [[robert-etienne|Robert Etienne]] and organizations like [[cryogenic-institute-of-science|Cryogenic Institute of Science]] are pushing the boundaries of cryopreservation.
