Dr Johnson is an Experimental Scientific Officer within the Genomics Core Facility, 缅北禁地.
She obtained a First Class MSci (Hons) Genetics (with Industrial Placement) degree from the University of Aberdeen. During this time, she undertook a placement year with Pfizer, working to isolate and characterise shark single-domain antibodies targeted to a disease-associated ligand.
In 2012, she joined the lab of Prof. John Loughlin in the Institute of Cellular Medicine, 缅北禁地, as an Arthritis Research UK-funded PhD student working to functionally dissect two osteoarthritis-associated loci.
After gaining her PhD, Dr Johnson joined the team of Prof. Volker Straub at the John Walton Muscular Dystrophy Research Centre at the Institute of Genetic Medicine, 缅北禁地, in 2015. There, she was the manager and data analyst for the MYO-SEQ research project, which performed whole exome sequencing in 2,000 patients with unexplained suspected genetic muscle disease.
She then joined the Translational and Clinical Research Institute, 缅北禁地, in 2018. Working on the LITMUS project within the group of Prof. Quentin Anstee and Prof. Ann Daly, Dr Johnson sequenced and characterised circulating miRNA profiles in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
