The Art of Crafting Your Next Team | Emily Yan | TEDxUTAustin

Описание: How can creativity help shape our teams? Emily Yan, a medical student studying Design in Health, is deeply invested in how creativity can inform what we do professionally. This talk invites you to lean into your artistic side and opens with, “Welcome to your first pottery class!” In this ceramics course, learn to craft a bowl of your own, hear moving healthcare stories, and discover a new framework for team-building. Emily Yan is a dual-degree Medical Student at the University of Texas at Austin. She is earning her M.D. at UT's Dell Medical School and her M.A. in Design focused on Health at UT's Design Institute for Health.

Previously, she studied at the University of California San Diego and holds a B.S. in Physiology and Neuroscience and an M.S. in Biology. She completed her Master's thesis in the field of Neuroscience at the Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine in La Jolla, California.

Along the way, her artistic bent sparked new ways of connecting with those around her. Her unique perspective lends itself to thoughtful collaboration with patients in the design of their own health care experience. As a forward-thinking future physician, she is committed to designing a reimagined health care system because she believes that patients deserve to have their values serve as the through-line of their care. 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
