00:00Introducing BrainBridge, the world's first revolutionary concept for a head transplant
00:11machine, which uses state-of-the-art robotics and artificial intelligence to conduct complete
00:17head and face transplantation procedures, ensuring smooth outcomes and faster recoveries.
00:23Because head transplants require high speed, precision, and efficiency, BrainBridge utilizes
00:29advanced high-speed, high-precision robotic systems to speed up the process, eliminate
00:35human error, prevent brain cell degradation, and ensure seamless compatibility.
00:40The head transplant procedure involves removing a person's entire head containing the brain
00:46from their current diseased body and attaching it to the body of a healthy, young, brain-dead
00:51donor.
00:53Head transplants could provide individuals with severe medical conditions such as terminal
00:58cancer, paralysis, spinal cord injuries, or neurodegenerative diseases, the opportunity
01:04to have a fully functional body while preserving their consciousness, memories, and cognitive
01:09abilities.
01:10The neurons are the longest-lasting functional cells in the human body.
01:15And according to our estimates, the brain is capable of lasting several hundred years,
01:20provided that the rest of the body remains young.
01:22The BrainBridge concept involves the use of the integrated robotics platform comprised of
01:28the two autonomous surgical robots, designed to perform simultaneous surgeries on two bodies
01:34side-by-side within a single setup.
01:37The complete robotization of the process allows for the surgery to be performed in an environment
01:42with varying temperature and pressure.
01:45The procedure begins by preparing the donor and recipient bodies.
01:48The donor is a brain-dead patient who has a functional body with vital organs in good condition,
01:55while the recipient is the patient whose head will be transplanted onto the new body.
02:01General anesthesia is administered to both the recipient and the donor.
02:06Both patients undergo tracheotomy, with a tube inserted into the trachea to provide respiratory
02:11support and facilitate mechanical ventilation.
02:14Our proprietary artificial plasma solution is administered to both the recipient and the donor.
02:21This solution is designed to keep the brain and body oxygenated, prevent clotting,
02:26and allow for safe operation at low temperatures.
02:29The recipient's head and the donor body are cooled to approximately 5 degrees Celsius
02:35to reduce potential brain damage during the detachment.
02:39Guided by advanced real-time molecular-level imaging systems,
02:42BrainBridge carefully separates the heads from the two bodies
02:46with the help of a specialized surgical technique
02:48that preserves the spinal cord and key blood vessels.
02:52Deep incisions are carefully made around the neck to expose the necessary structures,
02:57including the carotid and vertebral arteries, jugular veins, and spine.
03:03With the help of specialized AI algorithms,
03:06BrainBridge tracks both muscles and nerves during surgery to facilitate seamless reattachment.
03:12Next, incisions are made in the trachea, esophagus, veins, and arteries.
03:18The blood is then completely drained from the recipient's head to prevent clotting.
03:23The recipient's head is then positioned adjacent to the donated body using a mobile platform.
03:30BrainBridge immediately connects the detached head to the circulatory system of the donor body,
03:35which helps maintain blood flow during the rest of the procedure.
03:39It also re-warms the recipient's head and provides it with oxygenated blood.
03:45With the help of its ultra-precision surgical instruments,
03:48BrainBridge begins reconnecting the spinal cord, esophagus, trachea, nerves, blood vessels, and other tissues.
03:55This step facilitates communication between the brain and the new body.
03:59The machine utilizes microsurgery techniques and delicate microscopic adjustments
04:05to ensure the proper alignment and fusion of the spinal cord and other tissues.
04:10To help reconnect the severed neurons,
04:12BrainBridge uses a proprietary chemical adhesive, polyethylene glycol,
04:17which is applied locally to the spine at the point of fusion.
04:20Once the spinal cord is connected,
04:23A specialized implant is placed in the epidural space behind the spine over the point of fusion.
04:29This implant promotes the repair of damaged neurons
04:32and allows the patient's brain to form neural connections with the new body
04:35and ensures that the sensory system is restored.
04:39It also functions as a temporary backup control device for the donor body.
04:44The next step of the operation is a face and scalp transplant
04:47where all the muscles, soft tissues, and skin are removed from the recipient's face.
04:52The donor's face, muscles, and soft tissues are then precisely transplanted in their place.
04:58By transplanting younger donor tissues,
05:01the procedure reduces the probability of tissue rejection
05:04and offers potential for aesthetic enhancement,
05:07particularly in cases where the donor is significantly younger than the recipient.
05:12It also restores functionality and structural integrity to the recipient's face
05:16and rejuvenates its appearance.
05:19Brainbridge then carefully sutures the skin
05:21to conceal the complex rewiring beneath the surface.
05:25The skin is then treated with a special spray
05:27that contains growth factors, antifibrotics, and antibiotics.
05:32This spray promotes faster skin healing,
05:35prevents infections, and reduces scarring in the sutured area.
05:39Finally, immunosuppressive drugs are administered
05:42to prevent the recipient's immune system from rejecting the donor body.
05:47After the surgery, the recipient is carefully monitored in an intensive care unit
05:51and is kept in a coma for up to four weeks
05:53to prevent movement or misalignment of the connected body parts.
05:57During this time, the head, neck, and spine
06:00are firmly stabilized to optimize the fusion of the spinal cord.
06:04Life support systems are utilized to regulate breathing and circulation,
06:07while nutrition is delivered through a jeuginostomy feeding tube.
06:12Gradually, the recipient's brain should regain control over the new body.
06:17As the recovery process advances and the patient regains mobility,
06:21there will be a need for extensive rehabilitation,
06:24physical therapy, and psychological support
06:27to help the recipient adapt to their new body and regain motor functions.
06:32Brainbridge headband, which is equipped with a brain-computer interface,
06:36will allow the patient to communicate their needs during recovery.
06:41Thanks to the power of thought,
06:42the headband decodes brainwaves and turns them into text or speech.
06:47It could allow the patient to control other devices directly from their brain,
06:52granting them the autonomy to execute specific tasks
06:55independently throughout their recovery journey.
06:58Because of the complexity and unexpected challenges
07:01of the head transplant procedure,
07:03self-learning algorithms allow Brainbridge to avoid errors
07:07and adapt surgical plans in real time,
07:10depending on the surgery's needs.
07:12It can also improve its capabilities over time
07:14by learning from previous surgeries.
07:17Learning algorithms can recall past procedures and outcomes
07:20to continually refine and enhance surgical techniques
07:24in post-operative care.
07:26While the surgery is being conducted,
07:28the Brainbridge algorithm creates a personalized recovery plan,
07:31depending on the progress of the procedure and the needs of the patient.
07:36To maximize compatibility and ensure seamless integration,
07:40we collaborate with the top experts in generative artificial intelligence,
07:44brain-to-computer interfaces,
07:46and robotics with multiple successful projects
07:49and hundreds of high-profile peer-reviewed research papers.
07:53Over the past few years,
07:55we developed the end-to-end approach,
07:57which accounts for every single detail,
07:59including immune compatibility,
08:01brain-body connectivity,
08:03replacement of the visual and olfactory systems,
08:06and post-operative rehabilitation.
