TED and TEDxUNLV
The nonprofit TED (Technology, Entertainment, and Design) began in 1984 as a conference for spreading concepts and ideas in short, authoritative talks. It has since branched out with TEDx talks. They are independently run, local events that bring people together for sharing philosophies, thoughts, and ideas in societies around the globe. TEDxUNLV is one of these well-respected events.
At TEDxUNLV, Dr. Warren announced that she is resigning from her position as a tenured professor at UNLV. She is available for speaking engagements and consultations.
