Profile

• Dr. Min-Sik Kim is currently an associate professor of the Department of New Biology at Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST). He received his master's degree with Dr. Sang-Won Lee at Korea University and doctor degree with Dr. Akhilesh Pandey at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. During his postdoctoral research with Dr. Pandey, he constructed, for the first time, a draft map of the human proteome which is a landmark paper published in Nature in 2014 (see the paper). In recognition of his outstanding research contribution, he received the 'Albert Lehninger Award,' a prestigious award at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Kim is interested in understanding how a biological system rearranges its molecular landscape upon perturbation in altered states such as cancer. Especially, he seeks for developing technologies to integrate multi-omics data including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, PTM-omics, and metabolomics.
