This was the first objection that my neuroscientist friend brought up when I tried to talk to him about (edit:) cryonics. I don’t think science knows yet how dependent we are on our peripheral nervous system, but he seemed fairly sure that we are to a nontrivial degree.
As I say to every objection I hear to cryonics at the moment, your neuroscientist friend should write a blog post or some such about his objections—he has a very low bar to clear to write the best informed critique in the world.
(Guessing you mean cryonics—cryogenics is something else though not unrelated)

I’ll mention it to him.
