Google to build robot surgeons with Johnson & Johnson

From Telegraph:



Google is to team up with healthcare giant Johnson & Johnson to build robotic surgeons in the Silicon Valley giant's latest foray into healthcare.

The tech giant will work with J&J medical device division Ethicon to develop new robotic technologies for surgeons performing keyhole operations. It is not the first time it has ventured into healthcare - it is already working with Swiss drugmaker Novartis to develop a "smart contact lens" that can monitor diabetes patients' sugar level through their tears.
