This year has been more than eventful, but one of the biggest things for me was this: I had the great oppotunity to speak about my work - and about what my scientific endeavors have taught me. It was really the first public statement about how I see and understand the world, and what kind of ideas inform my work.

I am very blessed in the sense that I have the freedom to work exclusively on things that I find meaningful and important - and I can't wait to share the video with you, as soon as it is uploaded via TED
