TEDxSF, with the generous support of UCSF, is proud to announce “7 Billion Well: Re-imagining Global Health.” An unprecedented event, TEDxSF will draw the best thought leaders and emerging pioneers in academia and technology to bring the latest multidisciplinary ideas in addressing the most pressing health issues of our world today. We believe health is a right and responsibility for all human beings. To that end, our featured speakers — from medicine, entertainment, research, and technology — will share inspirational stories of innovation, revolution, and change. Crucial questions will be explored addressing the cutting-edge intersection of scientific research, medicine, technology, and industry. Our goals are two-fold: Create a community of diverse individuals who converse on ideas worth sharing, and drive innovative and revolutionary idea formation. We welcome you to be a part of the conversations that empower and activate others to change the world.
