Joan Kendig
Professor of Biology in the Department of Anesthesia, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory tries to find out how pharmacologic agents used in the practice of anesthesia (general anesthetic and analgesic agents) lead to therapeutically desireable endpoints including unconsciousness, immobility and absence of pain. The old idea that general anesthetics are uniformly non-specific "membrane stabilizers" is giving way to a new realization that these agents exert specific actions on particular ion channels and intracellular signalling systems.

Cynthia Khoo
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Khoo serves as the Associate Program Director of Career Development for the Stanford Anesthesia Residency and Co-Director of the Division of Global Health Equity. In her residency role, she leads the Anesthesiology Leadership Pathways at Stanford (ALPS), a comprehensive mentorship initiative spanning advocacy, research, community engagement, global health, innovation, medical education and quality improvement.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s MD-PhD program, Dr. Khoo completed her residency and regional anesthesia fellowship at Stanford. Her global health work focuses on promoting safe, equitable perioperative care through high-tech education, including immersive reality simulations for crisis management in Tanzania and Guyana. She supports bi-directional partnerships that facilitate resident rotations and host international scholars at Stanford. Her current research focuses on enhancing clinical research quality in low-resource settings across Rwanda, Vietnam, Guyana, and Tanzania. Dr. Khoo specializes clinically in regional, orthopedic, and thoracic anesthesia. -
Richard K. Kim
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Richard K. Kim is a board-certified anesthesiologist and Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine. He is fellowship-trained in regional anesthesiology and acute pain medicine (RAAPM), with clinical expertise centered on ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve and truncal/fascial plane blocks, neuraxial techniques, and the perioperative management of acute and complex surgical pain.
As a mentor, he has garnered numerous teaching awards, including the RAAPM Fellowship Teacher of the Year Award. He is actively involved in shaping education for anesthesiology, leveraging evidence-based medicine and clinical informatics to reinforce standards of care while advancing novel approaches to anesthesia.
His scholarly work explores the safety, efficacy, and implementation of regional anesthesia and multimodal analgesia in complex patient care settings, with ongoing work supported by the NIH. This continues to inform consultations and collaborations on questions at the intersection of anesthesia practice, emerging technology, and perioperative pain management.
His administrative work focuses on clinical documentation integrity and the alignment of anesthesia practice with procedural and regulatory standards. -
JT Kong
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Jiang-Ti Kong specializes in the treatment of chronic pain syndromes with expertise in the clinical management and scientific investigation of low back pain and fibromyalgia. In addition to teaching and practicing conventional pain management, Dr. Kong also leads the acupuncture service at the Stanford Pain Management Center, offering effective treatment alternatives for patients suffering from back pain, neck pain, joint pain, headaches, and complex regional pain syndrome. Dr. Kong has developed a strong interest in the interdisciplinary study of chronic pain mechanisms and alternative treatment modalities such as acupuncture. She currently leads two NIH-funded projects investigating the mechanisms of electro-acupuncture for the treatment of chronic low back pain.
