About
Dr. Hye-Rim Shin is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on the molecular genetics of colorectal cancer and the advancement of minimally invasive liver surgery. Her seminal work on *KRAS* mutations revealed that codon 12 mutations, unlike codon 13, carry significant prognostic value, fundamentally refining how clinicians stratify risk in colorectal cancer patients. This finding, published in 2023, has already garnered 12 citations, underscoring its immediate impact on precision oncology. Dr. Shin is also at the forefront of robotic liver resection (RLR), contributing to a new international consensus that clarifies the benefits and appropriate applications of robotic systems in hepatobiliary surgery. Her work bridges the gap between molecular biology and surgical technique, demonstrating how genetic insights can directly inform operative decision-making. By integrating genomic profiling with advanced surgical robotics, Dr. Shin is shaping a future where colorectal cancer treatment is both more personalized and less invasive. Her research continues to influence clinical guidelines and inspire the next generation of surgeon-scientists.
