WASTE ME NOT | Dr. Emmanuel Reynaud | TEDxWexford

Emmanuel is a keen biologist and a 3D imaging expert. His interest ranges from imaging entire coral reefs using simple kites and mobile phones to advanced 3D microscopy techniques. He designed and coordinated a unique imaging suite on the Schooner Tara for a circumnavigation of the Earth (2009-2012) and edited a book on "Imaging Marine Life". He has been honoured by the French Government for his works and is a Knight of the Palmes Academiques. He is working on improving ecological imaging of endangered ecosystems, introducing disruptive technologies in biological science from 3D bio-printing to virtual reality approaches and studying the amazing invertebrates made in glass by Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka between 1863 and 1890. More recently, he developed the Printastic Project to address the problem of marine litter using a combination of policy changes, improved packaging design and higher quality recycling strategy in collaboration with the Irish Department of Housing, Planning, and Local Government and the Rapid Foundation.
