Dr. Csilla Ari is a researcher at the University of South Florida College of Medicine, Molecular Pharmacology & Physiology. Csilla found some unique features of manta ray brains which inspired her to start experiments on their cognitive abilities, with a grant from the Save Our Seas Foundation. During these experiments she had some accidental discoveries that might change manta ray research worldwide. She will also talk about new approaches for manta ray conservation. In addition to being a principal investigator for the Foundation for Oceans of the Future and the Director of the Manta Pacific Research Foundation, Dr. Ari's research has been featured in the National Geographic Magazine (Hungary)

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)
