Nathan Myhrvold en zijn team's jongste uitvindingen - even briljant als gedurfd - herinneren ons eraan dat de wereld wilde creativiteit nodig heeft om grote problemen als malaria aan te pakken. En terwijl dat idee bezinkt, geeft hij een live demonstratie van een nieuw, muskietenschietend apparaat, dat je gezien moet hebben om het te geloven.

Nathan Myhrvold is a professional jack-of-all-trades. After leaving Microsoft in 1999, he's been a world barbecue champion, a wildlife photographer, a chef, a contributor to SETI, and a volcano explorer. Full bio »
