Smarter than the best EHR |
No, the Disease Management Management Care Blog is not describing any of its past speaking gigs, but a typical TEDMED session. Videos from the April 16-19 2013 event have been posted and the luminaries run from medical university big wigs to interpretive dance choreographers.
"Gimme a break," thinks the covetous DMCB. While TEDMED offers a lot of brain candy, content sampling shows too many empty calories and too much artifical coloring. Bleh.
Knowing that the attendees ("delegates") at the 2014 TEDMED will demand similar edutainment for the thousands of dollars they pay for each ticket, the DMCB still wants to help and is pleased to offer a listing of suggested 2014 session titles:
The Remarkable Absence of Prehistoric Obesity: Clues from Fossilized Dino Dung
