While it is barely 50 years since the first reliable reports of the
recovery of living cells frozen to cryogenic temperatures, there
has been tremendous growth in the use of cryobiology in medicine,
agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and the conservation of
endangered or economically important species. As the first major
text on cryobiology in the genomic era, Life in the Frozen State
describes the current understanding of how living cells and complex
organisms survive very low temperatures. Leading world experts
combine fundamental theory and practice across a spectrum of
species and applications to evaluate how cryobiology can benefit
humanity. Chapters encompass disciplines ranging from mathematical
modeling and biophysics, to the molecular biology of stress gene
expression and the clinical banking of cells and tissues. This book
provides a unique opportunity to explore the subject in a
multidisciplinary context, which has historically been the key to
realizing some of the most exciting advances in low temperature
research. Features Integrates fundamental theory and practice
across a broad range of species and applications Discusses
cryobiology within a multidisciplinary context Emphasizes how the
current knowledge of cryobiology can be applied to benefit humanity
through health care and conservation
