👁A new way to fund health care for the most vulnerable
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English
👣In 2011, eye surgeon and TED Fellow Andrew Bastawrous developed a smartphone app that brings quality eye care to remote communities, helping people avoid losing their sight to curable or preventable conditions. Along the way, he noticed a problem: strict funding regulations meant that he could only operate on people with specific diseases, leaving many others without resources for treatment. In this passionate talk, Bastawrous calls for a new health care funding model that's flexible and ambitious -- to deliver better health to everyone, whatever their needs are.

👁Which animal has the best eyesight?
🧠Thomas W. Cronin
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English
👣The animal kingdom boasts an incredible diversity of eyes. Some rotate independently while others have squiggly-shaped pupils. Some have protective lids, others squirt blood. But which creature has the best sight? Which sees best in the darkness? Which sees the most detail? Which animal sees the most color? And finally, which detects motion the fastest? Thomas W. Cronin investigates. [Directed by Josefina Preumayr, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by André Aires].
