Bioinformática y el libro de la vida | Ana Victoria Coronado | TEDxVillacarrillo
La bioinformática es una ciencia que aúna los conocimientos biológicos, la estadística y las herramientas informáticas para estudiar y analizar de manera eficiente la cantidad de datos biológicos que supone conocer el ADN no solo humano sino de cualquier otra especie animal y vegetal, así como virus y bacterias. La bioinformática nos ha permitido crear grandes bases de datos con herramientas computacionales para la secuenciación, visualización y análisis de datos genómicos. Su aplicación permite predecir mutaciones genéticas y personalizar tratamientos médicos, abriendo nuevas fronteras en la medicina de precisión y de la investigación biomédica, además de la compresión de la evolución, así como la mejora genética de animales y cultivos. No obstante, también plantea cuestiones éticas y sociales en su uso como el dilema de la clonación humana o la creación de personas con ciertas características genéticas.Doctora en Ciencias Físicas (Universidad de Granada).

- 1:53Organisation and tidiness | Abdullah Mohammed | TEDxTarneit YouthMy idea is about why it’s important to keep things organised and tidy. Being tidy has helped me a lot, it helps me stay focused, be responsible, and stay calm. When I’m organised, I don’t have to worry about extra stuff in my mind. Keeping things neat helps me relax and feel ready for anything. I want to share this message so other kids can feel calm and do their best too! Abdullah is a student at Barayip Primary School.

- 6:36Are you really okay? | Rose Baniya | TEDxTarneit YouthEvery child is human, and that means every child has emotions. Sometimes, kids are going through silent battles, feeling hurt, scared, or sad; but no one can see it. In this talk, I want to ask a simple question: Are you really okay? As children, we have the power to speak up, not just for ourselves, but for others too. We can help save children from these endless bits of devastation by being kind, listening, and standing up for what’s right. Together, we can make the world a safer and more caring place for every child. Rose is a student at Barayip Primary School.
