TEDxSanDiegoSalon – July 28th – Salk Institute
Many thanks to all our speakers and performers, as well as our volunteers and partners, who made this event such a success!
This special Salon featured speakers from inside the lab who are discovering life’s most closely held secrets, alongside life science thought leaders working within the world of applied biology.
From advances in sequencing the human genome and the world of stem cell technology, to a functional cure for type 1 diabetes, peering inside cells with electron microscopy, using CRISPR for editing RNA, connecting humanity with neurotechnology, the importance of circadian rhythms, how the microbiome supports health, success and failure in cancer research, and the future of personalized healthcare. What an amazing lineup.

What Attendees Say About Us
It was an amazing and inspiration day. The entertainment components especially meant a great day to me. I’ve been telling everyone that they need to invest in themselves and go next year.
I think the exploration and presentment of new and innovative ideas fosters discussion, opens perspective, and creates an opportunity for meaningful dialog. Well structured, well presented, and thoroughly entertaining, I would confidently encourage friends and colleagues to attend.
Eye opening, Mind refreshing, opportunity driven for positive thinking and meaningful action for Change in the World, this being on a personal level and a translation in a context of wider impact.
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 TEDx[name], where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDx[name] 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. “This independent TEDx event is operated under license from TED.”
TEDxSanDiego is a catalyst for spreading ideas that change our world
