- 18:47Ξετετραγώνισε τον κύκλο | Dr. Danae Deligeorges | TEDxZakynthosΗ Δανάη Δεληγέωργη μας προκάλεσε να σκεφτούμε αν η χαρισματικότητα χωράει σε κουτάκια. Με ένα ευφάνταστο και παραβολικό παραμύθι ταξιδέψαμε στην χώρα των κουτιών. Στο πράσινο της λογικής, στο κίτρινο της δημιουργίας, στο μπλε της καλοσύνης και στο κόκκινο των δυνατών. Αλήθεια εσύ σε ποιο κουτί θα έμπαινες; Μα ήταν κουτιά ασφάλειας ή φυλακές; Και αν τα κουτιά αναμειγνύονταν; Κι αν σκεφτόμασταν έξω από τα κουτιά; Κι αν αυτό είναι ελευθερία, ευφυΐα και εξέλιξη; Μια μαγική παραβολή με τον μοναδικό αφηγηματικό τρόπο που ενώνει την επιστημονική έρευνα με την κατανόηση.

- 15:17Hayatımı kalbimle yaşıyor, tutkularımla çiziyorum | İsmail Tuncer Değim | TEDxAtaturkUniversity“Küçükken oyunlarımda konuşmalar yapardım, büyüyünce akademisyen oldum.” İsmail Tuncer Değim, hayat yolculuğunda tutkuyla çalışmanın önemini kendi hikâyesi üzerinden anlatıyor. Yorulduğunda dinlenmek yerine başka bir işe koyulduğunu söylüyor. Ona göre, bir işi güzel yaparsanız mutlaka birini etkilersiniz.Bir iş ne kadar yürekle yapılırsa, hayat da o emeğe göre şekillenir. Ancak önemli bir denge vardır: “Çok çalışan kazanır ama dinlenmesini bilmeyen çalışmasını da bilmez.”Sevgi, başarıda temel taşlardan biridir. Bir şeyi severek yaptığınızda hayat mutlaka karşılığını verir. Yeterince istenen bir hedef, belki herkese değil ama mutlaka birilerine dokunur.Mesajı net: Bir şeyleri başarmak istiyorsanız önce sevin, sonra yürekle çalışın. Çünkü hayat, sevgiyle yapılan işin ödülünü er ya da geç verir. Prof. Dr. İsmail Tuncer Değim graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Pharmacy in 1985, earned his MSc from Gazi University in 1988, and completed his PhD at Cardiff University, UK in 1996. He became a Professor at Gazi University in 2009 and served as Dean (2012–2016). Since 2016, he has been at Biruni University.
