Dr. Jimok Kim received his Ph.D. degree in neuroscience from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. He completed postdoctoral training at Stanford University studying neurophysiology and cannabinoid receptor pharmacology. Thereafter, Dr. Kim moved to the Medical College of Georgia, where his research team investigated the signaling pathways of cannabinoid receptors in the rodent brain and their roles in modulating memory and cognitive functions, using molecular biological, biochemical, electrophysiological, and behavioral tools. Prior to joining CSR, he worked as a Scientific Review Officer at NINDS and NIDCR for approximately 5 years managing the peer review of applications for various funding programs including center grants, cooperative agreements, institutional training grants, fellowship awards, and career development awards.
