| 2017-04-26 || cryonics || social || writeup || Open Phlanthropy || As part of research into the history of philanthropy, Luke Muehlhauser writes "Some Case Studies in Early Field Growth" that, among other things, includes a section called "Failure modes in cryonics and molecular nanotechnology" that, he says, "saw especially slow, anemic field growth." Muehlhauser muses about possible reasons for the slow growth: "First, early advocates of cryonics and MNT focused on writings and media aimed at a broad popular audience, before they did much technical, scientific work. [...] Second, early advocates of cryonics and MNT spoke and wrote in a way that was critical and dismissive toward the most relevant mainstream scientific fields [...] Third, [...] these “neighboring” established scientific communities (of cryobiologists and chemists) engaged in substantial “boundary work” to keep advocates of cryonics and MNT excluded."<ref>{{cite web|url = https://www.openphilanthropy.org/research/history-of-philanthropy/some-case-studies-early-field-growth#FailureModes|title = Some Case Studies in Early Field Growth: Failure modes in cryonics and molecular nanotechnology|last = Muehlhauser|first = Luke|publisher = Open Philanthropy|language = en|date = 2017-04-26|accessdate = 2020-07-05}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url = https://www.openphilanthropy.org/blog/new-report-early-field-growth|title = New Report on Early Field Growth|last = Muehlhauser|first = Luke|publisher = Open Philanthropy|language = en|date = 2017-04-26|accessdate = 2020-07-05}}</ref>
