> An intriguing science is changing what it means to lose a limb. From Walter Reed Army Medical Center and Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab to universities across the country, what was once futuristic is occurring now as developments in robotics and neuroscience create a new kind of prosthetics. A science story and a human story, Out On A Limb shows the impact this transformative science can have, as revolutionary prosthetics move from the lab to the bodies of amputees, and particularly to children with limb loss, who stand to benefit the most.
>
> “A compelling documentary, Out On A Limb explores the incredible advances being made in the field of prosthetics and shows their potential impact on so many lives-- from the thousands of amputees wounded in wars to the millions of civilians at risk from such common diseases as diabetes.The dedicated professionals portrayed in this film believe that everyone deserves the right to live life to the fullest. It is a pleasure to watch as they work to make that possible.

> “Out On A Limb is a rare treat. Having broad experience in a particular discipline, it’s quite unusual to see someone's interpretation and not be disconcerted with some piece of it being wide of the mark. An extremely well done film and a significant undertaking about a field where so much is happening that each of us makes only the smallest of contributions. Out On A Limb brings it all into focus and reminds us of what it all means.”
