    • Michael's experience in the space industry
    • His unique health challenges and how they could affect his cryopreservation
    • The inception of Alcor's Meta-Analysis project
    • S-Mix score and why he values it as a primary metric
    • Concerns and limitations with the S-Mix score
    • Some surprising results of the meta-analysis
    • The dangers of unattended death and suicide
