NASA scientists are looking at ways to put astronauts in a state akin to hibernation for the long trip to Mars. They argue doing so could make the trip less stressful on the crew both emotionally and psychologically, as well as lowering costs and technology requirements for the mission.
The study is still in its early days, but researchers think they may have something in 20 to 30 years.

Sleeping has the same deleterious effects as microgravity. That's why I've always viewed stasis as a bad idea for space travel.
