Donghee Kim, MD, PhD
Social Science Research Scholar, Medicine - Med/Gastroenterology and Hepatology
BioI am clinically trained as a physician specializing in gastroenterology and hepatology. My research has focused on clinical research of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and obesity-related gastrointestinal diseases, focusing on a population-based study. In addition, my research was not only focused on gastroenterology and was expanded to cardiology, endocrinology, and neurology (sleep medicine). I have experience with large epidemiologic cohort studies as well as clinical trials. This work has resulted in over 250 published papers, including major journals such as Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Gut, Journal of Hepatology, American Journal of Gastroenterology, etc. (as the first and corresponding author). These publications have been cited more than 13,000 times.

Jayme Koltsov, PhD
Biostatistician 3, Orthopaedic Surgery
BioDr. Koltsov is an expert in clinical and translational orthopaedic research design and biostatistics with an incredibly unique and valuable combination of skill-sets. Her foundation from her Ph.D. in orthopaedic biomechanics provides an understanding of the underlying anatomy, pathology, and mechanics not typical for a biostatistician. This background empowers effective and efficient communication with clinicians and scientists and enables Dr. Koltsov to develop study designs and analytic strategies exceptionally tailored to the physical orthopaedic problems under investigation.
Dr. Koltsov has an extensive knowledge base in research methodology and statistical methods honed from her PhD onward, including univariate statistics (parametric, non-parametric, and categorical); survival analysis (Kaplan Meier and Cox proportional hazards); multivariable and longitudinal data analyses (logistic regression, generalized linear modeling, linear mixed models, and generalized estimating equations); quasi-experimental techniques for reducing bias (propensity score matching and inverse probability treatment weighting); patient reported outcome design and validation; and healthcare economic analysis. Over the past 6 years, Dr. Koltsov has developed a successful track record of collaborations with clinicians and scientists to lead and facilitate high-quality clinical, translational, and health services research spanning multiple orthopaedic disciplines, including spine, arthroplasty, foot and ankle, upper extremity, trauma, sports medicine, pediatrics, rheumatology, rehabilitation, and biomechanics.
