Quote of the day - Verb Surgical

 "We think of us not as a robotics company but as a surgical platform company. If you think of open surgery as Surgery 1.0, minimally invasive surgery and laparoscopic surgery as Surgery 2.0, robotics surgery as 3.0, we really think that the next era is 4.0. We call it digital surgery and physicians call it digital surgery as well."

/Scott Huennekens, CEO Verb Surgical/

"As told, the price tag for this ambitious vision is expected to be more than $300 million, Huennekens said. He noted that more than 200 people are working on the project--about 100 at Verb, with another roughly 50 at Ethicon and another 50 or so at Verily."
