Personal profile
Professional Information
Dr. Johnson's research encompasses three main areas: Anaerobic Microbiology, Microbial Systematics & Taxonomy, and The Human Microbiome. As a new Principal Investigator at OSU-CHS, her laboratory will focus on the discovery of novel anaerobes and their syntrophic partners with a view towards tailored microbiome modulation and precision therapeutics. Dr. Johnson brings with her a strong track record in acquisition, implementation, and management of clinical & industry related research projects across America and Europe.
