Surgery students 'losing dexterity to stitch patients'
This sounds like a valid concern until you realize that it is just transfer of responsibility.<p>What the surgeon wants is for lower level schools to provide him with students that are pre-trained for his specific needs.<p>If the Imperial College of London needs people who can cut-and-sew, then the Imperial College of  London should teach them to cut-and-sew.<p>Or even better, the Imperial College of  London can just  institute a “cut-and-sew” entrance exam. Given the status and pay of a surgeon, it is likely that the exam prep industry will do the training job for them.<p>If they don’t, then some Youtubers surely will. Problem solved, no robots harmed and everyone got some extra plushies.
