About
Min Ki Kim is a dedicated surgical educator and colorectal surgery researcher whose work bridges the critical gap between medical training and clinical excellence. His research centers on two key areas: enhancing surgical education for medical students and advancing enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in colorectal surgery. Kim's most impactful contribution, "A one-day surgical-skill training course for medical students' improved surgical skills and increased interest in surgery as a career" (2017, 59 citations), addresses a pressing global challenge—the declining interest in surgical careers among medical students. This study demonstrated that even a brief, focused training intervention could significantly boost both technical competence and career enthusiasm, offering a scalable solution for medical schools worldwide. More recently, Kim has turned his attention to ERAS in colorectal surgery, publishing "The Latest Results and Future Directions of Research for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery in the Field of Colorectal Surgery" (2023), which analyzes updated North American guidelines and charts a course for future innovations in perioperative care. His work exemplifies how thoughtful educational interventions and evidence-based surgical protocols can transform both training and patient outcomes.
