    When you're really tired, your brain deals with the problem by putting parts of itself to sleep. Scientists say partially-asleep brains could explain everything from sleepwalking and talking, to why you make so many mistakes when you're exhausted.

    Brilliant example of making learning interesting. Consider infection from the point of view of the pathogen. Create your own virus or bacteria and infect a host human.  Really fun and interesting.

    A talk exploring the idea that cancer is related to injury of some sort. Cancer cells may arise to fix the injury but the the process goes wrong. Muscle cells cover 50% of the body yet almost never get cancer. Why? Eva takes us through her findings from investigating these links.

    Surgeon Anthony Atala demonstrates an early-stage experiment that could someday solve the organ-donor problem: a 3D printer that uses living cells to output a transplantable kidney. Using similar technology, Dr. Atala's young patient Luke Massella received an engineered bladder 10 years ago; we meet him onstage.

    nice advertising film though, it gives you an idea it is easy to get such a research grant; actually, they do have grants for administrative activities too. Grants are never for 100% of your expenditures or wages and that is not nice.
