Adib Khan
“Knowledge and curiosity can empower every child to make healthier choices, solve problems, and create positive change in their communities.”
Adib Khan (13), from Bangladesh living in the United States, is a student with a strong curiosity about how the human body works, especially the brain and heart. Fascinated by science and its potential to help people, he began exploring medical science through neuron and cardiac simulations.
Adib founded CardioBridge, a student-led nonprofit focused on heart and brain health education for children and teenagers. He also volunteers with healthcare specialists and partners with local nonprofits to support community health initiatives and improve access to health information and services for young people.
Through CardioBridge, Adib shares educational content about heart and brain health both online and in person. He also designs and conducts simulations to explore how neurons and the heart function, turning his curiosity into knowledge he can share with others. With support from his family, teachers and mentors, Adib is helping more young people learn about their health and the science behind it.
