As a health communication scientist and scholarly activist, Dr. Devlon N. Jackson examines how digital health can improve the health of vulnerable populations. Within this work, she applies a health equity lens to identify communication inequalities that influence access and use. She also understands how mental health impacts physical wellness, and values the need for a more comprehensive health approach when communicating health information, especially if our nation hopes to eliminate health disparities and achieve health equity. As a result, Dr. Jackson was awarded an NIH-National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities Investigator Diversity Research Supplement grant to explore how health information technology (HIT) can improve health for African Americans and Hispanics living with mental health issues and chronic diseases. In addition to this project, her research is also supported by other NIH-funded awards where she and her colleagues are addressing other important digital health issues such as co-designing culturally-tailored apps with Black and Hispanic communities to support their health information seeking and decision-making. Dr. Jackson currently serves as an Assistant Research Professor in the School of Public Health’s Department of Behavioral and Community Health at the University of Maryland. She is also a faculty affiliate with the Maryland Center for Health Equity and the Horowitz Center for Health Literacy. For more information visit http://go2mc.me/athenaeum-series-y

With religious intolerance on the rise across the country, it is incumbent upon historians to document and record those experiences. And all too often, non-Christian religions like Islam are given short shrift in American history, though locally both Jim Johnston’s From Slave Ship to Harvard and Stephen Stec’s new article “Riley v. Worthington” in the Montgomery County Story highlight the overlooked presence of Muslims in our early history. In keeping with the adage that “today is tomorrow’s history,” Jim Johnston leads a panel of individuals from Pakistan, the United States, Palestine, and Algeria in a conversation to discuss what it is like to be Muslim in Montgomery County today.

The panel, moderated by Washington Post journalist John Kelly, covers the history of this one of a kind radio station that used to be “ High Atop The Triangle Towers” in Bethesda. Started on November 12, 1961 in a 20’ x 20’ room in the basement of the Woodmont Medical Building, they began to move away from middle of the road programming in 1968 in favor of “free form progressive” music and became one of the most beloved and legendary FM stations in the history of the airwaves. By the mid-1970s, similar stations changed over to formulated “progressive rock,” yet WHFS remained a free form station until 1983, lending incredible support to local musicians and the community at large.
