It isn't mentioned, but I would think that this works for cryonics... the ice crystals were one of the biggest sticking points. Well, aside from the original cause of death of course
I remember an arc in the Dick Tracy comic strip in the 1980s where the villain was a cryonics expert who had invented some quick way to thaw out corpsicles and thus revive arch criminals of the past.
Dick Tracy had the such over the top villains... nearing on superhero comic stuff, which it competed with. I don't think there was any multiverse arc, though.
I think the harder part is freezing fast enough. Experiments have been done with freezing and thawing small mammals. They survived but there was a maximum size after which they couldn’t be frozen solid pretty much instantly.
I would say more research needed, but it seems promising to me. After we get it working for transplant organs would probably be a better time to investigate this application.
