Описание: With targeted delivery of the molecule silicic acid, there is an immense potential to feed the global community for years to come, says nanoparticle innovator Dr. Christy Haynes. As a co-founder of the NSF Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology, she is driven to do something about world hunger - starting with boosting the immune response of crops to environmental harms. Listen and learn how engineered nanoparticles can help protect plants and enable farmers to reap abundant harvests that will make their way to markets and dinner tables. A Distinguished McKnight University Professor at the University of Minnesota, Dr. Christy Haynes is passionate about solving the global food crisis by using tiny, engineered nanoparticles. Based on her leadership of an analytical and nanomaterials chemistry lab and as a co-founder of the NSF Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology, Dr. Haynes believes together we can find a way to a sustainable food system with less reliance on fertilizers or pesticides. Recognized as an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow, a Searle Scholar, a Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar, and a National Institutes of Health "New Innovator," there is good reason to follow her guidance to a better future. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
