Calling all Nerds🗣️ We are pleased to welcome Bridgit Mendler into KDHRC’s Nerd of the Month Club, inspired by National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation’s Jelly of the Month Club!
Bridgit Mendler is especially well known among Gen-Zer’s, as her career started on Disney Channel! She starred in ‘Good Luck Charlie’ and ‘Lemonade Mouth’ and made other appearances in family friendly shows and movies. She also began her musical career with her debut studio album released in 2012. Her entertainment career continued as she worked on her anthropology degree at the University of Southern California, although she did not complete her degree. One day, her uncle took her to visit the MIT Media Lab— a research facility focused on tech, media, design, and human behavior. She said she had missed the space to explore new ideas, an opportunity many people experience in college that she had missed.
She enrolled in their master’s program studying media & online discourse when she found herself captivated by the space projects other students were working on. She met her now-husband at MIT and when the pandemic hit, they were working on communication satellites and software. Then in 2021 she enrolled in Harvard Law School studying space law, despite having no undergraduate degree. Then in 2023, Dr. Mendler passed up a SpaceX internship and launched Northwood Space with her husband. Northwood translates the data floating in outer space satellites into something that can actually be used on earth.
In an interview she gave with ‘The Free Press’ earlier this year, Mendler admitted: “I actually don’t think that I’m very smart and probably people that know me would think the same thing.” Her success is thanks to her determination, which she has carried from her days on Disney Channel to owning her own company. She says, “If I want to do it, I will find a way to make myself do it.” Mendler embodies the KDHRC core values and she is clearly fitting in with the KDHRC . Stay tuned for next month and send in your nominations!

Memorial Day is so much more than a three-day weekend, a chance for shopping deals, and a poolside cookout. Today is a day we remember and honor all those who have paid the ultimate price in service of our country. The soldiers who never made it home, and their families that will forever grieve the loss of their loved ones. Wherever you are, at 3pm today you are encouraged to pause for a moment of silence to remember and honor these brave soldiers. We are forever grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, today and always.

KDHRC turns science into impact with major support from the National Institutes of Health. During some casual Internet browsing the other day, we saw lists of top NIH grant recipients by state. Of course we took a peek to see our standing! Looks like KDHRC is keeping good company on this list and we are proud of our ranking and the hard work and vision it represents. 🧠 💪👏 We are committed to our contributions to science and making a positive difference in the health and well-being of the people our programs serve. Excited to continue our work and develop even more !🐿️

KDHRC invites you to meet the team✨
Meet Dexter Cooper, the Senior Program Manager at KDHRC! Dexter’s projects address both common and rare diseases that disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minority populations. He enjoys meeting and collaborating with new project partners, strategizing with KDHRC staff to identify best ways to evaluate projects, and envisioning how the projects can impact and improve public health outcomes. Outside of work, Dexter likes to spend quality time with family and friends, volunteers with Fathers Matter ATL, works out at the gym and runs, and listens to music.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and this time allows us to reflect and prioritize our own mental health and connect with others in our community to lift eachother up with support and compassion. Remember that mental illness looks different for everyone, and most of the time it isn’t visible. Start conversations, go beyond what is comfortable, and remember healing is a journey, not a destination. 🎗️💚
