Meet Kantapon Suraprasit . With a love for dinosaurs, coupled with immense knowledge on animals alive over millions of years ago, he exudes the energy of an ultimate prehistorics fan. Currenthy he is researching prehistoric mammals in Thailand, concluding in discoveries of three new species, one being the Siam Beaver. This newly discovered prehistoric species reveals a lot about Thailand’s contrasting climate during the prehistoric era. With the exploration of stable isotopes to infer primitive environments and climates, Dr. Kantapon excels in finding answers – merely from a single ancient tooth!

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxBangkok, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxBangkok event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
Learn more about TEDx at TEDx Talks.
