It focuses on her life from diagnosis to cryopreservation, with a parallel thread describing Hayworth’s research & his Brain Preservation Foundation and a good deal of material on plastination but not so much on cryonics (eg it mentions two of the new papers on much better plastination protocols but not the C. elegans paper or the new vitrification protocol it included). I would say it is overall positive, and very good PR for BPF, which is good news on its own.
Surprisingly late, the New York Times is publishing a 7.2k-word front-page article on Kim Suozzi: “A Dying Young Woman’s Hope in Cryonics and a Future: Cancer claimed Kim Suozzi at age 23, but she chose to have her brain preserved with the dream that neuroscience might one day revive her mind.” (NYT explainer; HN & OB comments).
