Peter S. Kim
Virginia and D. K. Ludwig Professor of Biochemistry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are studying the mechanism of viral membrane fusion and its inhibition by drugs and antibodies. We use the HIV envelope protein (gp120/gp41) as a model system. Some of our studies are aimed at creating an HIV vaccine. We are also characterizing protein surfaces that are referred to as "non-druggable". These surfaces are defined empirically based on failure to identify small, drug-like molecules that bind to them with high affinity and specificity.

Samsuk Kim, PhD.
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Kim is dual research and clinical T32 fellow working with Drs. Beth Darnall, Sean Mackey, and Heather Poupore-King. Her research is focused on developing and testing innovative digital interventions for chronic pain. Prior to Stanford, she received her doctoral degree in clinical psychology from the University of Detroit Mercy and external research training at the University of Michigan (at the Kratz Lab) with a focus on psychosocial factors (e.g., mindfulness, pain acceptance) for chronic pain. She completed an APA-accredited internship at the VA Boston Healthcare System. Her clinical interest is broadly focused on pain management, health promotion, adjustment-related issues, and emotional regulation. She uses a number of treatment approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, mindfulness-based treatments, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and interpersonal psychotherapy approaches.

Seung K. Kim M.D., Ph.D.
KM Mulberry Professor, Professor of Developmental Biology, of Medicine (Endocrinology) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the development of pancreatic islet cells using molecular, embryologic and genetic methods in several model systems, including mice, pigs, human pancreas, embryonic stem cells, and Drosophila. Our work suggests that critical factors required for islet development are also needed to maintain essential functions of the mature islet. These approaches have informed efforts to generate replacement islets from renewable sources for diabetes.

Sun Kim, M.D. M.S.
Associate Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in studying the pathophysiological processes that contribute to glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. My current research focuses on characterizing pancreatic beta-cell function in populations with significant insulin resistance and vulnerability to developing diabetes: individuals with schizophrenia, morbid obesity, and history of gestational diabetes.
