In an eye-opening talk, she describes her decade-long quest to help create a variety of rice that can survive prolonged flooding. She shows how the genetic improvement of seeds saved the Hawaiian papaya crop in the 1990s — and makes the case that modern genetics is sometimes the most effective method to enhance food security for our planet’s growing population.

His insight exploits something we're just beginning to understand about bacteria: their power of quorum sensing, or doing something together once they reach critical mass. Danino, a TED Fellow, explains how quorum sensing works -- and how clever bacteria working together could someday change cancer treatment.

Through video, story and song, Landes imagines the mindset of a woman alone in the midst of the vast ocean. (This talk comes from a session at TED2015 guest-curated by Pop-Up Magazine <http://ted.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=07487d1456302a286cf9c4ccc&id=d5df1fc952&e=b91cff72e4>; @popupmag <http://ted.us1.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=07487d1456302a286cf9c4ccc&id=d69e1d8308&e=b91cff72e4> on Twitter.)

New technology shows that we can pick up on these vibrations and actually re-create sound and conversations just from a video of a seemingly still object. But now Abe Davis takes it one step further: Watch him demo software that lets anyone interact with these hidden properties, just from a simple video.

>> It’s the mortar, not just the bricks, that makes a building strong. The mortar, in a strong team, is social capital: mutual reliance, an underlying sense of connectedness that builds trust."
