TEDxMIT’s first mother-son duo: Robbie Khazan - MIT Senior - and Dr. Inna Khazan - Harvard medical school faculty, clinical Psychologist, and biofeedback specialist - discuss how to train HRV, as well as the psychological and physiological benefits of doing so. #TEDxMIT

Muriel Médard, EECS MIT Professor, discusses how blockchain follows a pattern of de-centralization similar to that observed every other successful in networks, but follows a different approach where one moves equations and lets math decide what is reconstructed on the other side.

Thank you to the MIT Chorallaries student group for performing at our conference! It was a wonderful addition to the event #TEDxMIT

Dr. Ravikiran Raju, MIT researcher and faculty at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, explores the link between the environment, social determinants of health, and life expectancy, and how the right scientific solutions can address this. @MIT_Picower #TEDxMIT

Associate Scientific Director of The MIT Center for Gynepathology Research, Mikki Tal, challenges existing clinical tools’ failure to detect illness and provides a solution: measure everything so that we can detect anything. @ImmunoFever #TEDxMIT

Maya Makarovsky, MIT Class of ‘25 alum and Associate Consultant at Bain & Company, shares the importance of learning to work with both people and machines in the age of AI and presents her key pillars for collaboration. #TEDxMIT

He states that using modern AI technologies, one might be able to do cognitive cartography and perform mathematical operation that correspond to literary thinking on the encoded cartography of meaning, knowledge, and know-how.

Matt Toy, an MBA candidate at MIT Sloan, breaks down three factors (process orientation, external validation, and identity beyond your craft) that he has consistently observed to influence long-term success amongst high performers. @MITSloan #TEDxMIT

Liyam Chitayat, a PhD candidate in computational biology at MIT, talks about her work engineering mergers to help expand the capabilities of living biological systems. @MITBiology #TEDxMIT

Leonard P. Guarente, Novartis Professor of Biology at MIT, talks about how for the first time, we have science to slow aging. This would entail using NAD-boosting pills, along with good diet and exercise, to extend the healthy period of our lives. @MITBiology #TEDxMIT

Director of the MIT Age Lab, Joe Couglin, challenges the audience to think about how they could design a system to make the best of the later years of their lives now that science has increased longevity. @MIT_AgeLab @josephcoughlin

Florencia Pierri, associate curator of science and technology at the MIT Museum, tells the story of the 1968 Great Electric Car Race across the country between MIT and CalTech and its impact on electric vehicle development today. @MITMuseum #TEDxMIT

Debbie Douglas, senior Director of Collections and Curator at MIT museum, celebrates the 100th anniversary of Robert Goddard's liquid-fuel rocket launch and explores the influence of aerospace on the liftoff countdown. @MITMuseum #TEDxMIT

Davy Deng, PhD student at Harvard-MIT HS&T and an Emerson Consequential Scholar, examines mind-uploading, breaking down the problem to its simplest form: a 1 mm worm, where whole-brain emulation can be a real d science. @mit_hst @EmCollective #TEDxMIT

Dina Katabi, Professor at MIT CSAIL and MacArthur Fellow, shares how to turn one night of sleep into treatment for disease with wireless signals and using AI to translate nocturnal breathing into EEG. @MIT_CSAIL @macfound

Collin Stultz, cardiologist at MGH, director of Harvard-MIT HS&T, and EECS Professor at MIT, addresses the failure of clinical trials to represent all patients and the promise and peril of digital twins as a catalyst for patient-specific healthcare. @mit_hst #TEDxMIT

Chathan Cooke, MIT research engineer, presents the legacy of the Van de Graaff generator, from cancer radiotherapy to one of the first venture-backed companies to Cooke’s design of the coreless transformer, revealing the journey from ideas to implementation. #TEDxMIT

Caitlin Mueller, MIT Professor of Architecture and Civil and Environmental Engineering, explores the opportunity to use computational tools to simulate complex, lightweight shapes under gravity to enable innovation in art and material efficiency. @MITarchitecture #TEDxMIT
