About the initiative
The Foundation for Consciousness Continuity exists to organize rigorous inquiry into whether subjective consciousness can persist beyond biology.
Why this exists
Discussion of mind uploading, brain emulation, and digital survival often moves from technical possibility to personal continuity without examining the step between them.
This initiative is being built to hold that step open: to define it, make assumptions visible, and develop standards that do not reward a compelling story over a discriminating test.
Research posture
Continuity is neither assumed possible nor dismissed in advance.
Technical simulation, behavioral similarity, and subjective persistence are reported separately.
Unknowns, null results, corrections, and unresolved criticism belong in the record.
Neuroscience, philosophy, computation, measurement, and ethics must test one another’s assumptions.
Legal and organizational status
The Foundation for Consciousness Continuity is currently an independent research initiative. “Foundation” describes its intended convening and research purpose; no incorporated nonprofit or tax-exempt status is claimed.
No researchers, institutional partners, funders, or advisory board are announced at this time. Future affiliations will be listed only when confirmed.
