Overheard at TEDMED 2016
Observations from TEDMED 2016 Delegates
Through her husband Paul's death, as he wrote about in "When Breath Becomes Air," TEDMED 2016 Speaker Lucy Kalanithi learned that planning for the end of life can be part of a love story.
Overheard at TEDMED 2016.
TEDMED - the health and medicine arm of TED - was held November 30th to December 2nd this year. This year's theme was "What If?" As always, the speakers aimed to inspire and engage.
Number 3: Child sexual abuse is a preventable public health issue. That’s just one of the takeaways discussed at TEDMED 2016.
Agathe Philippot, a TEDMED 2016 Delegate, shares her thoughts on vaccine delivery. What do you think about the future of vaccines?
Iraqi-born, Detroit-raised pediatrician (and TEDMED 2016 Speaker) Mona Hanna-Attisha is on a mission to safeguard children's health. She stood up to the state of Michigan about the #lead crisis in #Flint. Kids in Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and elsewhere face the same problem with lead as kids in her Michigan clinic.
We are thrilled to announce that TEDMED will return to Palm Springs in 2017! Mark your calendars for November 1-3, and take advantage of reduced pricing by purchasing early at tedmed.com. We look forward to seeing you there and engaging with you on social all year.
Lucy Kalanithi, a physician, was the caregiver to her husband Paul during the end of his life. (He wrote about his experience in#WhenBreathBecomesAir.) She explores what end-of-life medical care helps you live your best life. What considerations should be taken with terminal illness?
Thank you Speakers, Innovators, and Delegates for an incredible TEDMED 2016! With your knowledge, passion, empathy, and curiosity, we're sure to have a brighter future in health. Continue asking "What if?" to inspire important conversation focused on shaping a healthier world.
At this year's TEDMED, so much was shared about our health from inside and outside of medicine--much of it surprising. What was the one point or idea that made the biggest impact on you?
A black person dies before his or her time every seven minutes in the U.S., says Public Health Sociologist David Williams at TEDMED 2016. He raises awareness about health disparities and identifying interventions to address them.
Gunhild Stordalen a cure to our most pressing health and environmental challenges: food! Eat food in a peel, not in a package. Take only what you'll eat. Eat more veggies. These are keys to cutting down on food waste, obesity, hunger, diabetes, climate change, and other global health challenges.
Getting a death-phobic culture prepared for mortality is difficult, but Progressive Mortician Caitlin Doughty wants us to think ahead. She advocates for eco-friendly end-of-life practices like #recomposition. Would you opt to be buried in a non-traditional way?Â
As concert pianist and physician, Music-Medicine Connector Richard Kogan (and TEDMED Speaker) excels at two of the world’s most demanding professions. Here, he reflects on the TEDMED experience.
