The Art of Expression: Christine Magnus Moore at TEDx SDSU

Christine Magnus Moore: Christine Magnus Moore is a registered nurse and has worked many years in the field of oncology. She has stood by the bedside of cancer patients, caring for them as they endured major surgeries, chemotherapy and even the aftermath of grueling bone marrow transplants. As connected as she felt to her patients, she didn't fully comprehend the courage it took to confront cancer every day until she faced her own diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Christine has been a cancer survivor for eleven-and-a-half years and has an inspiring story. Her own suffering ignited a deeper passion to help patients battling the disease.

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)
