This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Preventive research and total body scans: this is the new national obsession. Are we healthy? Many people feel unhealthy until proven otherwise. The Belgian philosopher Ignaas Devisch (1970) is alarmed by this development. He has decisive views about how we should structure health care!

He asks questions such as "where does health end and are we simply dealing with the personal will for a better life?"

Ignaas is professor in Ethics, Philosophy and Medical Philosophy. He holds positions at Ghent University and University College Arteveldehogeschool, Belgium and was research fellow for five years at the Radboud University Nijmegen.

He is chairman of a Belgian organisation de Maakbare Mens which reflects ethically and philosophically upon biomedical evolutions. As a philosopher, he works at the faculty of Health Sciences and Medicine. Since 2003, he teaches philosophy of medicine, social philosophy, ethics and bio-ethics.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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)
