Biography

Kim completed a Bachelor of Science with Honours in 1987 and PhD in 1990 at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, followed by postdoctoral research at the Australian National University. Kim ultimately settled at Waikato University as an honorary lecturer in chemistry. His current research focuses on the application of analytical chemistry approaches in environmental, human health, and forensic areas. Kim is also a contributing editor of the Annals of Improbable Research.

Cartoonography

Kim's cartoons have appeared on the web since 1994, and in print form in mainly science-related publications, including:

In addition, a cartoon calendar has been produced by the School of Science and Technology at Waikato University every year since 1995. His cartoons are freely available on his website www.lab-initio.com for any non-profit or educational as well as for some commercial uses.
