What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxMaastricht, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxMaastricht event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
Please take a look at this video that explains what TEDx has become:

The annual TED Conference takes place in Long Beach, California, with simulcast in Palm Springs; TEDGlobal is held each year in Oxford, UK. TED's media initiatives include TED.com, where new TEDTalks are posted daily, and the Open Translation Project, which provides subtitles and interactive transcripts as well as the ability for any TEDTalk to be translated by volunteers worldwide.
TED has established the annual TED Prize, where exceptional individuals with a wish to change the world are given the opportunity to put their wishes into action; TEDx, which offers individuals or groups a way to host local, self-organized events around the world, and the TEDFellows program, helping world-changing innovators from around the globe to become part of the TED community and, with its help, amplify the impact of their remarkable projects and activities.

"Link compassion with healthcare". Yes, Yes, Yes! Very nice warm speech.

[@alexgarios]

Great job, I really liked the way they approach the subject ... Like you I am a medical student and participated in the activities of IFMSA MEXICO ....

Couldn't agree more. Compassion is not only necessary from a moral standpoint, but it's also necessary from a business standpoint. No one wants to visit a care provider who doesn't seem invested in their wellbeing.

THANK you so much for these breathtaking film-fragments of my mother at the geriatric department of the Radboud hospital. She's one of the older ladies in your movie. (interviewed by Dr.) My two little nephews also appear in your movie. (jigsaw puzzle) I would like to know if there's a possibility to save/record it, so I will be able to watch it in the future. Kind regards, Marcel Degen

Doctors take care of a disease that happens to have a patient, nurses take care of a patient that happens to have a disease. This man would have found fulfillment in nursing.

[@craigb3601]

Sir, you are very wrong on one major point. It is the Nurses that took care of you.

[@TchockyPuritan]

Dr. Cox doesn't agree.
