Grace S. Kim, MD
Assistant Professor of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery (OHNS)
BioGrace S. Kim, MD is a pediatric otolaryngologist and surgeon-scientist in the Department of Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery at Stanford University. Her clinical practice focuses on the full spectrum of pediatric otolaryngology, with particular expertise in hearing loss, chronic ear disease, thyroid disorders, vascular malformations and pediatric head and neck conditions. Her research investigates the immune mechanisms underlying congenital hearing loss and inner ear injury, with the goal of developing therapies to preserve hearing in children.
Dr. Kim received her BA in Biochemical Sciences from Harvard University and her MD from Stanford University School of Medicine, where she also completed an additional year of research as a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Fellow. She completed residency training in otolaryngology–head and neck surgery at Stanford, including a two-year NIH-sponsored research fellowship investigating vestibular repair and regeneration, followed by fellowship training in complex pediatric otolaryngology at Stanford.
Dr. Kim joined the Stanford faculty in 2023. She leads a translational research program investigating inner ear neuroimmunology and congenital hearing loss, using animal models to understand how congenital cytomegalovirus infection and immune responses impact the developing auditory system. Her long-term goal is to develop targeted therapies that prevent hearing loss in children. Her work is supported by an NIH Mentored Clinical Scientist Research Career Development (K08) Award, as well as funding from the American Society of Pediatric Otolaryngology and the Stanford Maternal & Child Health Research Institute. -

Paul Krumpoeck
Affiliate, OHNS/Otolaryngology/Head & Neck Surgery
Visiting Scholar, OHNS/Otolaryngology/Head & Neck SurgeryBioPaul E. Krumpoeck is a PhD student in Neuroscience at the Medical University of Vienna. His current research as a visiting scholar at the Stankovic Lab at Stanford Medicine focuses on artificial intelligence-guided discovery of novel genetic factors underlying hearing loss, which entails functional and histological assessment of genetically engineered mouse models. Having worked with various other experimental models, his background includes research on viral vector-based gene therapy, clinical studies on outcomes of cochlear implantation, and more.

Lukas D. Landegger
Clinical Instructor, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery)
BioDr. Landegger is a fellowship-trained clinician-scientist in otology, neurotology, and lateral skull base surgery and Instructor at Stanford University School of Medicine. After gaining clinical as well as research experience in various countries (US, UK, France, Spain, Germany, Singapore, Australia), he specialized in otology with translational hearing research in Vienna, Austria and for five years in Boston (Mass Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School), leading to a PhD in Neuroscience. Apart from clinical projects, current basic research foci are funded by a grant obtained from the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy and include inner ear gene therapy, vestibular schwannoma, noise-induced hearing loss, and others.
