Transfer

Transfer was the word for the Dalek operation of surgically modifying humans into Robomen.

The Daleks attempted to use the procedure on the First Doctor but he was rescued. They selected him for transfer after he displayed a greater intellect than those of other prisoners. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth)

The Transfer process was replaced by the use of nanogenes known as the nanocloud which created more obedient and capable Dalek puppets instead of Robomen, and which worked on corpses as well as living beings. (TV: Asylum of the Daleks)
