TEDMED Now

TEDMED Now is a short-form podcast that revisits powerful ideas from the TEDMED stage through the lens of today’s science. Hosted by Kelly Thomas, PhD, Director of Scientific Content at TEDMED, each episode returns to a single Talk to explore what we’ve learned since it was given—and what deeper scientific insights help explain it. Moving beyond the story, TEDMED Now examines the biology, research, and mechanisms that shape human health and medicine. From neuroscience to public health, each episode brings clarity and rigor to the ideas that continue to evolve—connecting past insight to present understanding.
