TEDXCERN 2018: THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

20th November 2018 @Bâtiment des forces motrices in Geneva

The 5th edition of TEDxCERN took place on 20 November 2018 at Bâtiment de Forces
Motrices in Geneva from 14:00 to 18:30 CET

This edition's theme was the Elephant in the Room, a concept defined as an
obvious problem that is being ignored. It explored the kind of transformative
scientific innovation that is impacting the world we live in across a wide range
of disciplines. Addressing the Elephant in the room of our present days, the
event tackled the incertitude of humanity’s destiny as a species. Where are we
going? Will we destroy ourselves? Will we create new selves? Speakers addressed
the contradictions in subjects such as biotechnologies, AI and social media
amongst others. The disconnect between our science-dependent society and the
science on which it is built is a major concern. 

The first videos of the event are already available on the tab VIDEOS!
