Biography
Dr. Kim holds a Ph.D. in cancer cell biology from the Sungkyunkwan University in South Korea, which he earned in 2011. During his Postdoctoral fellow at UTSW Medical Center, his studies provided a clear rationale for the use of PARP inhibitors and identified novel pathway of PARP inhibitors for breast cancer treatment. Currently, Dr. Kim is seeking in-depth insights into how systemic metabolic conditions affect cancer progression, particularly in the context of breast cancer using a unique set of mouse models.
