    Dr. Kim received his PhD with a focus on the measurement of antipsychotic drug effect on the brain by using PET imaging. He completed the research fellowship program in King’s College London and Imperial College London. His scientific focus has been advancing the prevention of developing psychosis in high-risk for psychosis and the treatment of patients with schizophrenia. Currently, he is working on antipsychotic effect on the neurotransmission in the brain.

    The missions of the Computational Clinical Science (CCS) Lab directed by Dr. Ahn are to (1) elucidate the neurocognitive mechanisms of decision-making using computational approaches and (2) develop transdiagnostic phenotypes and cost-effective markers of psychiatric disorders, especially addictive disorders. To accomplish the missions, we use decision neuroscience as a framework to understand both normative and abnormal behavior, computational modeling to delineate the cognitive processes responsible for decision-making deficits, neuroimaging (e.g., fMRI) methods to probe their neural substrates, and cutting-edge machine learning algorithms to maximize prediction accuracy and generalizability.

    In SNU Connectome Lab, we are interested in the following areas of research: 1. Human connectomes : "How does the human brain connectome lead to the complex traits of cognition, emotion, and behavior in normal and diseases?" 2. Development and aging of human connectomes: "What are the gene-environmental relationships shaping one's brain and mind in children and elders?" 3. Data-driven human neuroscience. With the ultimate goal of the early prediction of cognitive and behavioral alterations, SNU Connectome Lab pursues data-driven science using large-scale, multimodal brain imaging and related data, such as genome data, and high performance data analytics.
