The world's first human head transplant will be performed at a hospital affiliated to Harbin Medical University in Heilongjiang, China, the British Daily Mail has reported.
According to the report, Chinese surgeon Ren Xiaoping and Italian doctor Sergio Canavero will in October 2017 cooperate to transplant the head of a Russian man, Valery Spiridonov, who has muscular atrophy, onto the body of a brain-dead donor.

Dr. Xiaoping has transplanted the head of about 1,000 mice while Dr. Canavero has long studied the head transplant operation.
At the Frontier Science conference in north-east China, Dr. Canavero said: "This operation will change history by curing incurable medical conditions like muscular atrophy."
He said the bodies of the patient and donor would be cooled to 12-15 degrees C before the heads were severed from their spinal cords using an ultra-sharp blade for a clean cut.
