Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Ha-Neui Kim is an Associate Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying bone aging and diseases such as osteoporosis. She investigates the roles of mitochondrial function, reactive oxygen species, and specific signaling pathways in bone cell physiology and pathophysiology.

Dr. Kim's work has been supported by federal grants from the NIH/National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases. One grant, totaling $302,940, supports her investigation into the "Role of Mitochondrial Quality Control in Bone Homeostasis and Disease." She is also a Co-PI on a $409,714 grant examining "Antagonism of RANKL signaling by estrogen in osteoclasts."

Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 29 and over 3,160 citations across 81 publications. Dr. Kim actively collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Maria Almeida, Aaron Warren, Charles A. O’Brien, and Stavros C. Manolagas, with whom she has co-authored numerous publications.
