Research Profile
Dr. Kim’s current research focuses on:
(1) Developing disease progression model-based clinical trial simulation tools to optimize clinical trial enrichment and design of studies to investigate the efficacy of potential therapies. She is currently focusing on optimizing clinical trial designs for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, type 1 diabetes, and autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease.
(2) Developing Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML)-assisted imaging analysis and informatics tools that will accelerate the analysis of imaging data and provide insights into better understanding of disease progression. Ultimately, the AI/ML-based tools will help in the rational design of disease prevention and treatment strategies.
(3) Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD)-modeling and simulation informing experimental designs of anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis agents to identify optimal regimens which markedly shorten the length of tuberculosis treatments and prevent the emergence of resistance.
