Johannson Lab Research Explained

Dr. Johannson’s research is focused on characterizing the impact of environmental exposures on pulmonary fibrosis and improving the lives of patients with ILD. Her research combines clinical epidemiology, environmental health science, and translational approaches to better understand disease mechanisms, risk factors, and ways to improve patient outcomes.

Current studies include

o   Epigenetic Impacts of Exposures on Fibrotic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

o   Defining the Impact of Environmental Exposures on Pulmonary Fibrosis

o   Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis: Defining Gene x Environment Interaction

o   Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis: Patient and Partner Involvement and Engagement to Design a Prospective Cohort Study
