Hyunkyung Claire Kim
Postdoctoral Scholar, Endocrinology and Metabolism
BioHyunkyung Claire Kim is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the Translational Genomics of Diabetes Lab led by Dr. Anna Gloyn. She received her PhD in Genetics from the University of Chicago, where she developed a statistical method to disentangle shared and trait-specific genetic architecture across complex diseases using large-scale biobank data. Prior to her doctoral training, she worked at Massachusetts General Hospital, studying the genetic subtypes and heterogeneity of type 2 diabetes through data-driven clustering approaches.
She is interested in the translational genomics of diabetes, including integrating human genetics with clinical data to uncover disease mechanisms and advance precision medicine. Her long-term research interests include developing computational methods to understand how genetic, molecular, and environmental factors jointly shape metabolic disease risk, disease heterogeneity, and progression. -

Donghoon Kim
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioDr. Donghoon Kim is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford’s Center for Advanced Functional Neuroimaging (CAFN), working in close collaboration with the Stanford Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC). His work develops cutting-edge deep learning approaches for multimodal neuroimaging analysis, with an emphasis on the early detection and characterization of Alzheimer’s disease pathology.
Before joining Stanford, he earned his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of California, Davis. His Ph.D. thesis was titled "Deep Learning-Driven Technical Developments and Clinical Applications of Arterial Spin Labeling MRI." During his Ph.D. studies, he focused on the development of advanced deep learning techniques for ASL MRI and its clinical applications. During his master's degree in Biomedical Engineering at Virginia Tech–Wake Forest University, he studied the functional connectivity of the default mode network using resting-state BOLD fMRI among youth football players. -

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.

BioDr. Kim is a translational bioprinting researcher specializing in tissue engineering and ocular regenerative medicine. She holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering. Her research focuses on developing innovative therapeutic platforms for ocular diseases using 3D bioprinting, biomanufacturing, and regenerative medicine.
She has developed 3D-bioprinted corneal stromal constructs that replicate native collagen alignment and achieve transparency, successfully restoring visual function in preclinical beagle models and subsequent veterinary clinical applications. She also advanced a simplified in situ corneal therapy that has completed veterinary clinical trials and is now licensed for anticipated human trials. Currently, she is developing ocular therapeutic implants using advanced 3D printing approaches.
Dr. Kim has collaborated with regulatory authorities and preclinical evaluation agencies to define guidelines for 3D-printed combination medical devices and to conduct safety testing of bioprinted corneas. Her work has been internationally recognized, contributing to her university's ranking as 12th in Reuters’ 2019 “Top 100 Most Innovative Universities,” and spans drug delivery, diagnostic and therapeutic devices, personalized medicine, and translational ophthalmology. Her long-term vision is to engineer personalized therapeutic implants and biofabrication technologies that bridge fundamental science and clinical translation, initially focusing on restoring vision and ultimately expanding to regenerative therapies for multiple organ systems.
