- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- There's some amazing things coming down the healthcare pipeline and Daniel Kraft ( @daniel_kraft ) knows a "little" about all of them. We asked him to take us on a rollercoaster-journey through them.
Take for example regenerative medicine, which is starting to experience tremendous growth with the blossoming use of stem cells to help the body heal and replace damaged tissue. Or personalized medicine that allow for far more precise dosage and effectiveness for individuals, not masses. Kraft will touch upon some impressive developments that hint us to the future of medicine. Kraft teaches at Stanford University, is an expert on regenerative medicine, and a member of the faculty at Singularity University and is directing their upcoming FutureMed program.

What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxMaastricht, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxMaastricht event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
Please take a look at this video that explains what TEDx has become:
About TED
TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 25 years ago, TED has grown to support those world-changing ideas with multiple initiatives. The annual TED Conference invites the world's leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes. Their talks are then made available, free, at TED.com. TED speakers have included Bill Gates, Al Gore, Jane Goodall, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sir Richard Branson, Nandan Nilekani,Philippe Starck, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Isabel Allende and UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The annual TED Conference takes place in Long Beach, California, with simulcast in Palm Springs; TEDGlobal is held each year in Oxford, UK. TED's media initiatives include TED.com, where new TEDTalks are posted daily, and the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as the ability for any TEDTalk to be translated by volunteers worldwide.
TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to host local, self-organized events around the world, and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.
My wife was diagnosed with an illness that requires multiple meds a day. Part of the problem was remembering what to take and when - who prescribed it - what it was for and when to renew . She is now using a free app called Med Helper on her Android Phone. Since she downloaded the app shes had a record of what she took and when .The app also reminds her when to take the meds and when to get refills - when to see her Doctors and she can also track her vitals. In her case technology works.
An excellent presentation. Although it was recorded 4 years ago, it is still full of fresh insights.

She tried to make him drop that toupee at the end.

this stuff is entirely bad. In fact it is pretty awesome and useful to our growth as humankind, but it needs to be taken with true caution and we need to learn from the ways of eastern doctors at the same time (i.e. keep people healthy, instead of make money off of your illness). And something tells me Mr. Kraft is looking forward to being out of a job, because he's looking forward to making millions with his med-patents. Med-Market just like the War-Market... =/ Open minds to better things
Talk about technology, ok. But they've been talking about technology going way back in the 1900's. But it's the medical profession no matter who they were who had many many tools of technology and never cared about or listened to the patient and dropped them like a rock. OOPS! But they made their money anyway. That's all they cared about. THEMSELVES.
@patricksavalle Spreading anti-technology via the Internet? That's just perverted...
