I wanted to let you know that the TEDMED 2013 Conference is being live simulcast at Tompkins-McCaw Library if you should be interested from April 17th - 19th.  The TED (technology, entertainment, design) conference series began in the mid-1980s. The TEDMED conference talks focus on health and medicine. According to organizers, "TEDMED believes that the future of health and medicine will be shaped by vital input from leading medical colleges, teaching hospitals, government agencies and non-profit institutions around the world." In this spirit of collaboration and information sharing, the TEDMED event is broadcast free to these institutions. 

Here is a link to the lineup of speakers and a schedule if you are interested.
