On October 18th, the World Science Fiction Convention, an annual event that has attracted much attention in the science fiction circle, will be held in Chengdu.
Founded in 1939 and hosted by the World Science Fiction Association, the World Science Fiction Convention has a history of 83 years and is recognized by 2.2 billion science fiction enthusiasts around the world as the world's most high-profile, longest-standing, largest-scale and most influential science fiction cultural theme event. This is also the first time that the World Science Fiction Convention has entered China, and Chengdu has also become the second city in Asia and the first city in China to host the world's highest standard science fiction event.
The main venue of the 81st World Science Fiction Convention
At that time, fantasy fans from all over the world will gather at the Chengdu "Nebula" Science Fiction Museum to witness the birth of the Hugo Award, the "Nobel Prize in the science fiction industry", and share wonderful science fiction exhibitions, hundreds of public theme salons, and super-large lakeside parties, with themes covering "science fiction and literature", "science fiction and art", "science fiction and film and television", "science fiction and industry" and other fields, and go to an "endless journey" together.
The conference specially invited the world's science fiction masters Liu Cixin, Robert · Robert J. Sawyer and Sergey Lukianenko were the Guest of Honour. Chinese science fiction "Four Heavenly Kings" Liu Cixin, Wang Jinkang, He Xi, and Han Song will all appear.
The stars gather and enjoy the future. Science fiction is like a link, under the theme of "Symbiosis Era", science fiction writers from different regions and countries exchange and learn from each other, and science fiction groups from different industries and fields gather together to look forward to the opening of this science fiction event.
Liu Cixin and "Three-Body Problem" "Hibernation"
When it comes to Chinese science fiction, Liu Cixin is an absolutely unavoidable name, his representative works include the novels "Supernova Era", "Ball Lightning", "Three-Body Problem" trilogy, etc., his novel "Three-Body Problem" won the Hugo Award for Best Novel at the 73rd World Science Fiction Convention, which is the first time that an Asian writer has won the award. In "The Three-Body Problem", Liu Cixin depicts the science fiction technology of "hibernation".
He believes that "hibernation, a plot that has appeared in science fiction, is most likely to come true or become popular in the future." Liu Cixin once said in an interview that he used to want to save money to go to space, but now that his ideals have changed, he wants to "hibernate".
From science fiction to reality
Yinfeng Life Extension Program
However, in the real world, the door of "hibernation" technology has been knocked, and Yinfeng's life extension program is one of them.
Yinfeng Life Extension Program is a future-oriented and challenging cutting-edge life science research project, carried out by Shandong Yinfeng Life Science Research Institute, which mainly includes tissue and organ cryopreservation and resuscitation research and human cryopreservation and resuscitation research.
Among them, the research on human cryopreservation and resuscitation is to cryopreserve the whole human body through interdisciplinary research such as cryobiology, cryomedicine, molecular biology and clinical medicine, slow down or even suspend the metabolic rate of human cells, tissues, organs, etc., block the process of functional failure and "death", and let life continue. In 2017, Shandong Yinfeng Life Science Research Institute completed the implementation of the first human cryopreservation surgery in Asia, promoting China to become the third country that can independently implement human cryopreservation.
Yinfeng Life Extension Project is like a combination of science fiction and reality, and this time it was also invited to participate in the exhibition and meet you at the 81st World Science Fiction Convention (Science Fiction and Human Exhibition Hall B33)
Latest developments
With infinite hope for future medical technology, I applied to become a member of the Yinfeng Life Extension Program and volunteered to contribute to cryobiology in a hundred years by becoming a cryonics volunteer. I also believe that preservation in China is safer.
As a distinguished emblem of technological innovation in Shandong, Yinfeng's Life Continuation Project will continue to build a bridge for domestic and international government research and academic exchange, continually strengthen scientific collaborations and result transformations with global research institutions, consistently contribute to the development of cryobiomedicine, and inject continuous hope into the shared ideal of extending human life.
Exploring life sciences and anticipating future miracles. The Yinfeng Life Extension Program members' online exchange meeting successfully concluded at 9:30 AM. Aaron Drake, Director of the Clinical Response Center at Shandong Yinfeng Life Science Research Institute (hereafter referred to as Yinfeng Institute), and the cryonics team participated in this exchange event.
On August 23, the Jinan Private Economic Development Bureau and China Economic Weekly jointly launched the theme publicity activity of "Central Media Look at Jinan - Entering Jinan's Private Economy" in Yinfeng Biotechnology Park.
