Greg Loan once made theme park magic. Now, he uses his special effects and robotics know-how towards medicine. His creations—which have eyes that blink, skin that feels real and veins that bleed fake blood—help doctors master life-saving medical procedures at Boston Children’s Hospital.

This is the best thing I've watched all day! They no longer need to kill animals to practice operations on. They can just do it over and over on fake patients' body parts.

Imagine falling asleep in a place filled with robotic heads with moving faces. Then you woke up staring at one.

I'm a Nursing freshman, I took this as my pre-med course. Hopefully one day when I take up my med-proper education, we could use your models as our medium to practice because this could be really helpful. More power to you and I hope your creations reach worldwide.

Boston Children’s Hospital is seriously amazing! I saw a doctor there for two years because I had a rare bone disorder in my foot. I had surgery (on my foot) a few years ago and everyone there is truly so skilled and amazing!

What he is doing, creating models for doctors and others to improve their skills, can save millions of lives more than NOT doing what he does on a daily
basis. These people should be awarded for their efforts to preserve and protect humanity!😊✌🏻
