Researcher in Germany has found a way to cryogenically induce a state of suspended animation in hippocampus slices from mouse brains.

They were cooled to -196 C ( about -321 F ) in liquid nitrogen and cooled for a week before being revived.

Tests showed that the revived brain tissue had just about fully recovered and had resumed electrical activity.
