like origami

Perhaps you’ve punched out a paper doll or folded
an origami swan? TED Fellow Manu Prakash and his team have created a microscope
made of paper that's just as easy to fold and use. A sparkling demo that shows
how this invention could revolutionize healthcare in developing countries … and
turn almost anything into a fun, hands-on science experiment.
Manu Prakash is on a mission to bring radical new
technology to global health.
