I just found TED about a month ago, and have become slightly addicted!
ReplyDeleteA couple more of health-minded interest and fairly entertaining and informative…
Hans Rosling- Debunking Third World Myths (animated Swedish Professor)
Marvin Minsky- Health, population and the human mind (Mathematics, robotics, AI guru)
Bill Gates- unleashing mosquitoes into a roomful of people.. oh and he talks too (umm.. he’s Bill Gates)
Nathan Wolfe- Global Viral Forcasting Initiative… amazing! (Stanford/ULCA Researcher)
I watched the Nathan Wolfe video a few days ago and was totally impressed with it. Potentially one of the coolest things I've seen on TED. It makes so much sense too, let's be proactive about finding the next serious viral diseases, let's move towards prevention not reaction.
