The NSF ERC for Advanced Technologies for the Preservation of Biological Systems (ATP-Bio) is a collaborative network of experts and engaged stakeholders working together to advance and ethically translate technologies for storage and distribution of living biological products. These technologies have broad applications in healthcare, bioconservation, and food supply and sustainability. The ERC provides a forum for both academia and industry, fostering creation and transfer of knowledge and transforming the research, application, and education of cryopreservation and biopreservation techniques.
Join us on our journey to revolutionize the way organs, cells, tissues are preserved, stored, and transported.

Did you know some animals can freeze… and still stay alive? Yep — their hearts stop beating, but they don’t die! Welcome to the ATP-Bio Coloring Book, brought to you by Read More »
Scientists are developing new ways to “pause” biological time using cutting-edge biopreservation techniques like supercooling and vitrification. These methods could greatly extend how long donor organs remain viable outside the Read More »
Organoids are tiny, lab-grown versions of human organs that help scientists study how our bodies work and develop new medicines. With more support to make, store, and share these mini-organs, Read More »
