The Modern Meeting
Ep. 52 - When Science Meets Lived Experience with Dr. Nathan Smith, Director of Research at Kindbridge Research Institute (Part 2)
Adam saves money...to gamble. In part two of Adam’s conversation with Dr. Nathan Smith, Executive Director of Research at Kindbridge Research Institute, the focus shifts to his work with veterans and military members and the fight to better understand problem gambling. Dr. Smith shares how Kindbridge is expanding research efforts far beyond what’s been done in the past for Veterans, why the lived experience community is important to the cause, and the urgent need for more studies in this field. He tackles big questions—like what it will take to secure greater funding for gambling research—and offers insight into how data, advocacy, and awareness can shape the future of prevention and treatment.
