In the spirit of the 30-year TED Talks program mission of sharing “ideas worth spreading,” the University of Idaho is hosting its second-ever independently organized TED event this weekend. Centered around the theme “Cultivating Curiosity,” the student-led event features a diverse lineup of presenters, from a Syrian refugee who relocated to Idaho to several of the university’s own faculty and alumni. Topics on the day’s slate of 3- to 18-minute presentations include antibiotic-resistant superbugs, global hunger, polar bears and global warming, and much more.
Sat, April 9, from 8 am-5 pm • $10-$25 • University of Idaho, Administration Building Auditorium, Moscow • tedxuidaho.com • 208-697-2166
