Good evening, everyone.
You're going to hear from ten Stanford faculty who,
each of whom in two minutes or less will tell you about the biomedical innovation,
they think is going to change the way we live over the next ten years.
>> The innovation I'm going to talk about.
Is a new set of novel diagnostic tests based on genomic technology.
>> We will reverse aging.
I'm talking about regenerating one's own tissues.
>> In the future we'll be able to combine your data to create a much
richer understanding of your own personal health than we've ever been able to do
in the past.
So just imagine, if your embedded brain monitor warned you
that you were developing brain signals associated with say Parkinson's Disease,
Depression, Alzheimer's Disease.
>> Wouldn't it be great that if at the beginning of that operation,
the surgeon could harvest stem cells from your body.
And those cells at the end of the operation would repair, replace or
regenerate the tissues that you needed to have a successful outcome.
>> Enter synthetic biology and some of the work,
wonderful work that Drew Endy's lab is doing actually creating synthetic.
DNA and inserting that into microbes and
actually opening up the opportunity of personalizing our microbiome.
>> You all know that ALS is a terrible degenerative disease,
where people gradually over time lose their muscular ability.
Imagine that we could do something about that, that we could.
Through reading brain signals,
allow those people to run devices in the outside world.
To run computer cursors.
To move robotic arms.
To even reanimate their own limbs.
Sounds like science fiction, but this is exactly what my laboratory is doing.
>> We have to take cost, and inefficiency out of the healthcare system and
we can do this through technology.
But we have to point our young inventors in that direction.

>> This is the Embrace Infant Warmer.
It's an unique incubator for the developing world.
There's three main components.
There's the warm pack which is of phase change material.
It's heated in the heater for about 30 minutes.
We kind of keep.
Appropriate temperature, and
goes in the back of the baby wrap, and stays that temperature for six hours.
>> This is a cognitive test,
to determine your ability to track smooth pursuit of a moving object.
It's going to run the test six times, and then a score will appear.
>> Keep playing?
>> We're getting there.
>> Okay [INAUDIBLE].
>> So you're looking at an augmented reality version of Gordon's hand.
You're looking inside his hands, to see the anatomy itself.
And so you can see, right here, there are some broken bones.
I believe that these,
this sculpture actually has three broken bones in the metacarpals in the palm.
A lateral fracture, or fracture of the head, and then a spiral fracture.
>> So what you're seeing on the computer screen is the left eye and the right eye.
But when you place the glasses on, you actually get,
each eye gets the unique view.
So you can see it in stereo, stereoscopic vision.
Here, we have dropped you inside the head.
Here, we are, you're looking at the inner ear here.
You see the cochlea there.
The ear drum, the auditory ossicles is
the smallest bone in your body.
