This paper set out to discover whether memories can be retained after cryopreservation. The research was done on commonly used model organism called a Caenorhabditis elegan (C. elegan) and showed that they could be revived out of cryopreservation while keeping their memories intact.

This experiment began by inducing cardiac arrest and brain death in a pig and perfusing it with cold solutions until it reached close to 0°C. Afterwards the pig was rewarmed and revived and evidence suggested that it's memories persisted.
