'Reanimation' firm is looking for ways to bring 'brain-dead' people back to life

'Reanimation' firm is looking for ways to bring 'brain-dead' people back to life | Daily Mail Online: "To be declared officially dead in the majority of countries, you have to experience complete and irreversible loss of brain function, or 'brain death.' And although this sounds final and absolute, a company in the US believes it doesn't have to be. Bioquark, a healthcare company set up to look into so-called 'repair' and 'reanimation' technologies claims death may not be 'irreversible' and we have reached a point to 'push the envelope' and test if this is really the case."
