Medical crowdsourcing has helped solve hundreds of difficult medical cases
Jessica Greenwalt is the Co-Founder of CrowdMed, a company that solves the world's most difficult medical cases faster than ever before using the 'wisdom of crowds'. We help patients whose doctors tell them there is no hope—or that their symptoms are in their heads. Some of the patients who come to the site have been suffering without a diagnosis for years and have gotten the correct answer for their case from our medical community in a matter of weeks.

Economic development through technology proliferation

The connection between comic books and women in technology professions
Rebecca Rachmany feels that TV would be great if it weren't for all the programs. Her company, Gangly Sisters is committed to creating new content for girls. We want our girls respected for their smarts and strength, but we bombard them with images of women valued for their sweetness or sensuality. Did you know that in children’s programming, fewer than 25% of the characters are female? I bet you did know that most of those characters are either props or tokens in male-dominated media, or driven mainly by their desire to get a boy to fall in love with them. If we want media that reflects who we are, who we want to be, and who we want our girls to be, we ladies are just going to have to do it ourselves. Introducing Purple and Nine, the fun, smart and empowering show for girls. No perfect body, wand, or sparkles required.
