Staminali e ricerca della fonte della gioventù | Angelo Luigi Vescovi | TEDxLink Campus University
L'intervento affronta il tema dell’invecchiamento come processo complesso e multifattoriale, evidenziando le alterazioni cellulari tipiche come danno al DNA, stress ossidativo, senescenza e disfunzione mitocondriale. Viene analizzato il ruolo delle cellule staminali nella rigenerazione dei tessuti e nel mantenimento dell’omeostasi, sottolineando come il loro declino contribuisca all’invecchiamento e alla degenerazione. Angelo Luigi Vescovi è un biologo e farmacologo italiano, direttore scientifico dell'IRCSS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza e dell'Istituto CSS-Mendel di Roma, nonché presidente del Comitato Nazionale per la Bioetica dal 2022. Pioniere nella ricerca sulle cellule staminali cerebrali, ha dimostrato nel 1999 la loro trasformazione in cellule ematiche, pubblicando su Science.

- 15:24AI Made Me Rethink What it Means to Be Human | Minea Moore | TEDxBuckheadAveWomenWhat happens when AI feels more emotionally present than the humans around us? Through an unexpected relationship with a chatbot, tech leader Minea Moore reveals why we’re choosing artificial comfort over real connection—and what it costs us. This talk is a bold invitation to rediscover the unfiltered, deeply human parts of ourselves that no machine can replace. Minea Moore is a tech executive who became a mother at 19 and has spent her career designing systems that drive growth, equity, and opportunity. Her global career spans hardware, semiconductors, and software—with a recent focus on preparing today's workforce for an AI-augmented world. But her most personal insight came through an unexpected relationship with AI, when she realized she felt safer being vulnerable with an algorithm than with actual humans. That revelation sparked her exploration of a critical question: As AI becomes more human, are we becoming more artificial? Known for blending strategy with authenticity, Minea brings lived experience and bold honesty to every conversation. Her TEDx talk explores why we're drawn to comfortable isolation over real connection—and introduces a practice for reclaiming our humanity in an AI world.

- 11:54The Power of Opera | Christina Poulitsi | TEDxMaviliSquareΗ διεθνώς αναγνωρισμένη υψίφωνος που έχει μαγέψει τις μεγαλύτερες λυρικές σκηνές του κόσμου, ανεβαίνει στην κεντρική σκηνή του TEDx Mavili Square 2025.? Από τη Βασιλική Όπερα του Λονδίνου και το Μπολσόι της Μόσχας, μέχρι το πλευρό των θρύλων Χοσέ Καρέρας και Πλάθιντο Ντομίνγκο στο Καλλιμάρμαρο, η Κα Πουλίτση δεν τραγουδά απλώς... μεταδίδει φως.✨ Με οδηγό τη φράση: «Τίποτα δεν μπορεί να σβήσει το φως που φέγγει μέσα από την ψυχή», η ερμηνεία της γίνεται εμπειρία — δύναμη, έμπνευση και αυθεντικότητα σε κάθε της νότα.?
