意味（1）

One who works in the field of cryonics.

Cryonics was in its infancy then, and cryobiologists were hard to find, let alone cryonicists. The former believed the body could be frozen in pieces; the latter that it could be frozen whole.

意味（2）

A person who is, or who wishes to be, preserved cryonically.

This will not always be the fault of the patient or anyone else; a cryonicist may die in a plane crash, reduced to ashes with nothing left to freeze.
