BIL:PIL 2009 – Andrew Hessel from WHITECOAT Strategies on Vimeo.

When the ICT revolution was at its peak, say 5 years back, already predictions were made that Biology is the next Big field of great Leaps. Like Luca Turin, Andrew Hessel seems to present one of those frontman in the field of bioscience with ICT. The talk above is his view on solving particularly Cancer. But as you will note, his vision on the medical possiblities is much wider. Other fascinating talks of him are here and here.

If you enjoy these “bio-tech” talk, google tech talks is also a good spot for more. These talks are a bit more focused on the tech side.
If you enjoy less the tech and more the HOW. You might like this Ted talk about how we could further improve our healthcare by social tech innovation (ted talk)
