Ganesh Vasudevan is an American trained scientist who has been leading research and business development at some of the most innovative biotechnology start-up companies in the U.S. He looks at his work from the perpsective of the molecule and has used that vantage point to conduct his research on AIDS, influenza, auto-immunity and stem cell biology. He is currently licensing the products of his patents and research to Life Technologies, an $8.8 billion company based in California that specializes in diagnostics, assays and instrumentation. A technology expert and naturalist, he uses his expertise to valuate companies in the tech sector and analyze emerging trends in science and technology.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
