My question is serious. I have more than a bum body (Marfan’s Syndrome, 6 collapsed lungs, other forms of chronic pain) and have not so long to live.

I know how sci-fi it sounds, but I am interested in a partial brain transplant.

I know about Dr. Robert White but I have no idea how to contact him or if he is still looking for “test” subjects.


I am looking for leads on any doctor who may be willing to perform such an operation, even experimentally, as I have nothing to lose at this point.


I have searched this site already and found a few posts on the subject, but all the links in the posts were dead and I could not get any conclusive information.

My ultimate objective is to organize a team of qualified individuals, provide them with sufficient funding for both their time and research, and finally perform the operation.


I am a 1-time American national chess champion, classical pianist, artist, small-time actor, prominent game programmer (I was a dev on Heroes of Might and Magic, for one, so if you enjoyed that game remember me 😳), and soon-to-be author. I would really like a few more years to give back to the world all it has done for me.

I know it is easy to mock a person asking about such a sci-fi operation but I appreciate your serious consideration.


Thank you,
Mr. Smith
