This is assuming that by cryonicists you mean people who work for cryonics institutes or people who support cryonics without having an academic background in cryobiology.

No.

So the by-law bans anyone sympathetic to cryonics?

See this article by Mike Darwin.

Thanks!

I'm starting to suspect that my dream of finding an impartial analysis of cryonics is doomed to be forever unfulfilled...

There are cryobiologists who are cryonicists, e,g. the authors of this paper.

The paper does not mention cryonics, nor does the lead author's bio mention being a member of the Society for Cryobiology.
