This is a '''timeline of {{W|cryonics}}brain preservation'''.

Cryonics A brain preservation is the attempt to preserve a human or non-human animal using low-temperature with the hope that partial or complete resuscitation may be possible in the future.

While {{W|cryonics }} is currently the most popular method of brain preservation method, and preserves individuals using low-temperature. But other methods are being used and developedas well, notably [httpshttp://www.gwernoregoncryo.netcom/manual/plastination plastinationchemicalFixation.html fixation], and a combination of both called [http://www. This brainpreservation.org/21cm-aldehyde-stabilized-cryopreservation-eval-page treats all brain preservation methods/ aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation].

Similar concepts, or alternative Alternative names for cryonics brain preservation include biostasis, and neural archiving, and brain preservation.

Often confused with cryonics, suspended animation (or anabiosis) is a distinct practice where a patient body would remain biologically intact, and could be reanimated without the need to deeply repair the brain, or transfer its information to another substrate.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.oregoncryo.com/suspendedAnimation.html|title=Oregon Cryonics - Suspended Animation|website=www.oregoncryo.com|access-date=2019-01-24}}</ref>However, improvements in suspended animation would also improve the quality of cryopreservations given a patient could be maintained alive at lower temperature before undergoing the cryonics procedure. So this timeline also includes some important milestones with regards to suspended animation technology.
