Bialik will start her two-week guest-hosting duties on Memorial Day - Monday, May 31. The charity she's chosen to highlight during her guest host gig is the National Alliance on Mental Illness, an American advocacy group that's a dedication to helping people who are related to someone who has been diagnosed with a mental illness. Prior to her 'Jeopardy!' appearance, Bialik has been open about her HSP (highly sensitive person) diagnosis on her mental health podcast 'Mayim Bialik's Breakdown,' where she mainly puts her UCLA doctorate in neuroscience to use.

However, Bialik is probably most known for her breakout role as Dr Amy Farrah Fowler on the CBS sitcom 'The Big Bang Theory.' More recently she's narrated 'Young Sheldon' and stars in 'Call Me Kat.' As per Fox News, since February - Bialik is the ninth guest host 'Jeopardy!' has had. The show has been rotating hosts as producers reportedly try to find a permanent replacement for Trebek, who passed away from stage 4 pancreatic cancer in November at age of 80. Trebek had hosted the quiz show for 37 years.
