Networking chemistry: Lee Cronin at TEDxCERN

Lee Cronin investigates how chemistry can revolutionize modern technology. His lab has created a 3D printer for molecules and he has a bold plan to make matter come alive with forms of non-biological life! Here he discusses his 'Apollo Project' for chemistry.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
