Across the nation, students spent 17-minutes in silence to honor the 17 lives lost in the Parkland tragedy, but an infinite number of silent moments can't save lives. What if we were able to prevent mass shootings by harnessing science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)? Divya Nori, a young scientific innovator, explores this complex question and proposes a gun violence prevention solution because to create a world free of mass shootings, leveraging the untapped STEM perspective is crucial. Divya Nori is an internationally recognized youth researcher who aims to create novel solutions to public health issues using her strengths in biochemistry and neurobiology. She is the founder of Safer with STEM, an organization that works towards preventing gun violence through STEM principles. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
