1 Dr. Sergio Canavero says he is two years away from performing the first total human head transplant. 2  The first patient will be a 30-year-old Russian man with a rare, genetic muscle wasting disease. 3  One ethicist says Canavero should be helping paralyzed patients walk before performing body transplants.
Many of them, like the patient, are already identified because they've asked to be part of this team. Then they'll need to practice for what is anticipated to be a 36-hour operation. I say two years is the time needed for the team to reach perfect synchronization, Canavero speculates.
