Since 2008, Dr. Kingston has been a Health Sciences Educator at the UC San Diego School of Medicine (SOM). One of his roles has been to teach 1st year pharmacy and medical students in the subjects of Anatomy, Histology, and Physiology. He has numerous years if curriculum development and has great interest to help students maximize their comprehension and retention of information that is critical to the education. Dr. Kingston, along with a team of subject matter experts in SOM, collaborate to offer student support through the Office of Educational Support Services.
