Research Interests
Dr. Kim studies the biochemical mechanisms underlying circadian rhythms, the bodily and behavioral changes tied to the24-hour daily cycle that are responsive to light and darkness. His research to date has focused on pinpointing the activation and inhibition of proteins integral to regulating the circadian clock and on the biochemical mechanisms that reset it. He is interested in examining disruptions such as jet-lag in order to help devise effective treatments.
