Professor Kim got Doctor of Dental Surgery, specialty of Public Health Dentistry and PhD for epidemiology from Seoul National University School of Dentistry. He worked as a visiting scientist in the Department of Oral health Policy and Epidemiology, Harvard School of Dental Medicine in 1998-1999 and 2006-2007, and in the Depart of Periodontology, UNC in 2000. Now, he is a tenure-track professor in the Department of Preventive and Social dentistry, SNU SOD. He serviced as a vice- dean during 2010-2011 and the chairman of the Department of Preventive and Social Dentistry during 2012-2013. He has served for the Korean Academy of Preventive Dentistry as the president during 2014-2016. He was an associate editor of the Korean Journal of Clinical Preventive Dentistry (KSCI) and a board member of the Journal of Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology (SCI). He has published and presented more than 290 topics, papers and books. He is also a principal investigator on the research with $3 million by Korean Government, development of Rapid-Test-Kit for periodontitis using salivary proteomics during 2017-2021.
