Oregon Brain Preservation

A fruit fly has successfully been uploaded. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07558-y
140,000 neurons. It's the first complex brain to get uploaded. If you fire up the brain in an emulator and present it with a taste input, it will stick out it's tongue. How cool is that? I expect the quality of fruit fly uploads and emulation environments to gradually improve over the next few decades. I also expect a mouse to get uploaded within the next few decades. They have already been working on it. Yes, of course these first uploads will have a bit of "brain damage", but they will certainly get better with time, and the public opinion will inevitably shift to treat all of this as normal and expected.

This is a good new. Because it's the first step from vitrification and fixation from scan to run (in computer), it's a big leap. Now, It's just of matter of time to reach the goal of the run a specific human brain.
Question; why not to try to work together with nectome and brain preservation foundation? Join make the force.
Greetings.

We do talk to them. Not sure what "joining" there is to be done. We all live in different cities and we are each doing the best we can. I can't really imagine anything more that we could do together than we already are.

That detail was in the news article that I first ran across that talked about this paper. I read the paper after I made the post and couldn't find that detail either. I didn't feel like digging deeper. I suspect that it's somewhat accurate even though it's not in that specific paper. They've been working on this for over 10 years, so there must be other papers out there from these same researchers. My guess is that it was mentioned during an interview.
