Abstract
The quantum field theory of gravitation is used to compute quantum corrections to the classical Schwarzschild solution of the Einstein equations. The event horizon at r=2M must now be modified, and there are indications that quantum effects may prevent the appearance of the intrinsic singularity at the origin.Keywords
