Tompkins-McCaw Library for the Health Sciences will host a live simulcast of selected programs from TEDMED 2015, Nov. 19-20, during regular library hours. The University community is invited to join colleagues to listen to this provocative series of short, inspiring talks, curated by the well-known TED (technology, entertainment, design) conference series, which began in the mid-1980s.

TEDMED focuses on health and medicine. The conference, themed "Breaking Through," is being held in Palm Springs, Calif. 

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.
