There were three talks I saw at TED that I can’t quite shake out of my brain. Geoffrey West’s is now online, and I can’t overstate how interesting and important I find his work. To be clear, if you haven’t watched it, take 18 minutes and watch it now.

There was an article about the research about six months ago, but seeing Dr. West present it himself, even with the 18-minute constraints of TED (as if the time was precious, instead of the ideas) headlines the humanity and decency at the center of his research. 

(also he had the coolest bag of anyone there)
