Dylan Jaye

Investment banker and musician

Oxford Graduate and member of Informal Talks. He gives us his idea about Truth and Dare as the adolescent-era game which popularised this word pairing is typically presented as ‘truth or dare’. And yet, in the context of life philosophies, I've found it fruitful to shed this dichotomy in favour of ‘truth and dare’. Only when we know ‘truth’ can we find direction, and only when we know the bravery inherent in the concept of ‘dare’ can we unrelentingly pursue that direction.I faced considerable pressure to follow a specific life path after graduation. He chose instead to carve a more unique path, and could not be happier for having done so.

In this TEDx talk, she will give out the scientific truth about virus. she hopes her speech can encourage students to learn some biology in their daily life, since we might fight against virus for a long time in the future. At the same time, she wants us all to think about the truth behind the science of virus, how it break the order of the world.I would say that I want to be a person who is dare to seek the truth. She believes truth is a criterion and the core of many jobs. Dare is the spirit that help us to create new ideas and possibilities and dare to take the risk.
