Dr. June-Yung Kim's primary research focuses on the developmental effects of prenatal exposure to drugs and family violence with an aim to mitigate the transgenerational transmission of trauma. Dr. Kim has been actively involved in federally funded studies as a research fellow and statistician, including a 21-year longitudinal birth-cohort study investigating the neurobehavioral developmental outcomes of prenatal cocaine/polydrug exposure (NIH/NIDA R01 DA07957). As a principal investigator, Dr. Kim is currently conducting a pilot research project, in partnership with practitioners and policy makers, to delineate the constructs of trauma and resilience across the social determinants of health domains unique to indigenous prenatal drug use, a sub-award funded through the Indigenous Trauma & Resilience Research Center by the National Institute Of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health (NIH/NIGMS 1P20GM139759).
