You can read the article here.

It took lots of breathing to make sure I got it out as clearly as I could. These are some tricky issues, but talking about them sure helps.

I'm super excited and pleased that I've been named a TED Senior Fellow for 2014 - the announcement is here on the TED Fellows blog. I'm looking forward to another 2 years working with the amazing Fellows team, and representing as a South African woman in science, woop!
