Dr. Kathryn Mutter

Kathryn is an emergency physician and associate professor whose career bridges the emergency department and the classroom. She directs the Phase 3 medical school curriculum and created the Internship Readiness Course — a bootcamp that prepares graduating medical students for the intensity of residency — which was recognized by the AAMC as a national model in 2024.

Her ability to translate complex medical concepts for non-experts makes her a natural voice for Alula’s editorial content. She co-authors articles with both Justin and Bridgid, bringing clinical clarity to topics that families encounter for the first time during a crisis.

She writes about the science behind what actually works when the textbook isn’t enough — translating medical evidence into practical guidance for families navigating aging and caregiving.
