(1) Study Genrich Altshuller's Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (Russian 
acronym TRIZ) to see if it can help us make faster progress in brain 
vitrification.  Link to:

(2) Use telemedicine to monitor the health of ailing cryonicists and get to 
them much quicker after cardiac arrest:

(3) Use the advancing state of the art in functional brain imaging to gather 
external data about how our brains worked when we were alive & reasonably 
healthy.  These data could supply the missing pieces needed by our 
resuscitators to put us back together some day.  Admittedly this is 
speculative, but what can already be done is pretty impressive:
