About

I'm a doctor by training, did translation cancer research in the past, and have been building tech companies over the last decade.

Since I've been a child, I pretty much cared about one thing and one thing only. How to allow people to live as long as they choose to.
Money, fame, free time, etc only matter to me as they help me achieve that goal.

I sold the last two tech companies to focus fully on perfecting the technology and logistics of human cryopreservation. Towards that goal, I founded Tomorrow Biostasis GmbH (Berlin, Germany) and the European Biostasis Foundation, a non-profit research foundation in Switzerland.
