Juyong Brian Kim
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe lifetime risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) is determined by the genetic makeup and exposure to modifiable risk factors. The Cardiovascular Link to Environmental ActioN (CLEAN) Lab is interested in understanding how various environmental pollutants (eg. tobacco, e-cigarettes, air pollution and wildfire) interact with genes to affect the transcriptome, epigenome, and eventually disease phenotype of CVD. The current focus is to investigate how different toxic exposures can adversely remodel the vascular wall leading to increased cardiac events. We intersect human genomic discoveries with animal models of disease, in-vitro and in-vivo systems of exposure, single-cell sequencing technologies to solve these questions. Additionally, we collaborate with various members of the Stanford community to develop biomarkers that will aid with detection and prognosis of CVD. We are passionate about the need to reduce the environmental effects on health through strong advocacy and outreach.

Nathan Geonwoo Kim, MD, MS
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
BioDr. Nathan Geonwoo Kim is a board-certified, fellowship-trained transplant hepatologist with Stanford Health Care. He is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology & Hepatology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Kim specializes in hepatology and liver transplantation (transplant hepatology). He cares for people with severe liver disease, such as cirrhosis, alcohol-associated hepatitis, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Dr. Kim also provides personalized liver cancer care, which may include targeted therapies or liver transplantation to achieve the best possible outcomes.
With a Master of Science in epidemiology and clinical research, Dr. Kim studies hepatocellular carcinoma and outcomes in chronic liver disease. His research focuses on ways to deliver better, more equitable care to people with liver diseases.
Dr. Kim has published his findings in leading medical journals, including the Journal of Hepatology, Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, and Cancer. He has also shared his expertise at national and international conferences, including Digestive Disease Week, The Liver Meeting, and the International Liver Congress. -
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.
