Al “Just call me Al” Kim, MD PhD is an internationally recognized thought leader in systemic lupus erythematosus and the translational applications of immunology. He aspires to teach rheumatology fellows how to clinically interpret p values and to build foundations for their early careers. Al is a bit of a celebrity in the rheumatology community, and if you hang out with him, you’re likely to meet multiple other big names in rheumatology, several MSLs (medical science liaisons), and probably one or two of his patients who recognize him on the street, expanding your professional network all the while. When Al is off the clock, he enjoys fine dining, ice hockey, golf, and spending time with his wife and cats.
