According to Canavero, the operation is set to last up to 36 hours, and will cost over $11 million.

During the procedure, the patient’s brain will be cooled down to 10-15 degrees Celsius (50-60 Fahrenheit) to prolong the time the cells are able to survive without oxygen.

The body will be taken from a brain-dead but otherwise healthy donor.

An ultra-sharp scalpel will be used to cut through the spinal cord, and a special biological glue will be used to connect the head to the new body.
