Dr. Kim's (she/her/hers) research has been on the modifiable structural drivers of health inequities, including neighborhood social and built environment factors on population health and older adults in home and community-based long-term care systems. She has been utilizing various large-scale data (e.g., administrative data, EHR, surveys) and applies advanced quantitative methods to generate actionable evidence for equity-oriented policy and community-level interventions. Combining population health and health service research perspectives, Dr. Kim’s K99/R00 project, supported by the National Institute on Aging, focuses on measuring and evaluating the causes and consequences of delayed diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia (ADRD). In this realm, she is delving into how structural racism (SR) and community advocacy against SR impact ADRD prevention, diagnosis, and care. Her research interest is in facilitating cross-sectoral collaborations to improve the care of marginalized individuals.
