Dr Owase teaches us to deconstruct the impossible and overcome the biases in our mental decision trees.
Owase Jeelani is a world renowned paediatric neurosurgeon, inventor, entrepreneur and philanthropist. His work has featured in over 200 articles and programmes on Al Jazeera, BBC, CNN, FT, New York Times and The Times amongst others with one BBC feature ranking as the 6th most widely read article for 2019, globally. Owase’s journey through life, medical school, law school and business school and the consilience from these experiences has enabled him to push boundaries - surgical, technological, geopolitical and entrepreneurial. Owase has taught in and treated patients from over 100 countries, set up Gemini Untwined, a global charity focussed on improving outcomes for craniopagus twins and Klay Biotech, a digital platform for making surgery safer, more efficient and patient centric. Underpinning all these endeavours is his focus on utilising facts and addressing biases to improve predictions - “the better one gets at predicting the future, the luckier you become”. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
