Peter S. Kim
Virginia and D. K. Ludwig Professor of Biochemistry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research focuses on developing new strategies for vaccine creation. We also aim to generate vaccines targeting infectious agents that have eluded efforts to date. We integrate experimental approaches with protein language models to guide artificial evolution and enable efficient antibody and protein engineering. Our interdisciplinary approach aims to address critical global health challenges.

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. -
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 InterestsPancreatic islets are essential for human health. We study the development and function of islet cells using modern methods in several model systems, including mice, pigs, human pancreas, primates, embryonic stem cells, and fruit flies. We have discovered critical factors required for islet development and mature islet cell function. These approaches have informed efforts to generate replacement islets, and provide immune protection of transplanted islets 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.
