TED Fellowship 2010

TED is most famous for its wonderful series of online lectures by social innovators, scientists, inventors, artists, etc. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should definitely have a look at TED.com and browse through their large collection of clips. 

TED also has an international fellowship program. This is from their site: 

The TED Fellows program helps world-changing innovators from around the globe become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities. Fellows are drawn from many disciplines that reflect the diversity of TED's members: technology, entertainment, design, the sciences, the humanities, the arts, NGOs, business and more. 

The TED Fellows program is designed to bring together young world-changers and trailblazers who have shown unusual accomplishment and exceptional courage. The program targets individuals from the Asia/Pacific region, Africa, the Caribbean, Latin America and the Middle East, though anyone from anywhere in the world, age 18 and over, is welcome to apply. 

I received a TED Fellowship for 2010 which means I’ll be participating in the annual TED conference in California that starts in just a few days. I’ll be meeting my 24 fellow Fellows for the first time during the preconference, and I’ll be talking about Biomodd. I’ll try to Twitter throughout the event. You can follow me here.
