Eugene H Kim is a student, recorder, and gamer.
Currently, Eugene trains as a first year psychiatry resident (PGY-1) in Allentown, PA and will finish his residency in 2023. His professional psychiatric interest lies in psychedelic medicine, with the use of MDMA and psilocybin in therapeutic contexts.
We cover this in length during our conversation as well as parenting, mentorship, the need for emotionally vulnerable community, death and so much more.
Please note -- We recorded this episode back in April of 2019. Game Of Thrones was still on everyone's minds and we allude to our former podcast name, Both/And.
Eugene has two major projects: On the Education of a Physician and the On Death Podcast. He writes weekly reflections on his experiences in medical education, from the very first anatomy lab of medical school, to now, as a resident psychiatrist.
For the podcast, Eugene utilizes the same four prompts for the 100+ conversations:
I am...
Before I die, I want...
When I die, I want...
After I die, I want...
