Expedition Medicine Sierra Leone is a group of medical students that undertook a medically orientated expedition from July to October 2013. Their expedition investigated protection against infectious pandemics and in order to do this, they drove over 4,500 miles to Sierra Leone visiting, supplying and supporting remote hospitals en route. By volunteering their medics' knowledge and skills this group of students has enhanced the healthcare in under-resourced hospitals. Their talk will investigate the use of protective medical equipment and how it can help in preventing the spread of disease.

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)
