Yangmee Kim is a Professor at Konkuk University, South Korea. She earned her Ph.D. in Prof. James Prestegard’s group at Yale University in 1990. Her research focuses on elucidating the virulence mechanisms of multidrug-resistant bacteria by investigating the structure and dynamics of proteins involved in fatty acid synthesis and aryl polyene biosynthesis using NMR and MD simulations. She also develops potent peptide antibiotics based on structure-activity relationships, with one candidate having successfully completed Phase I clinical trials for sepsis.
