Marc T. J. Johnson Explained

Marc Johnson is a professor of biology at the University of Toronto Mississauga.[1] He is the Canada Research Chair for Urban Environmental Science, and was the first Director of the Centre for Urban Environments from 2018-2023.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Education

Johnson obtained his Ph.D. in botany from the University of Toronto in 2007, after which he conducted a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Postdoctoral Fellowship at Duke University.[7]

Research

Johnson's research uses concepts and methods from genetics, ecology, evolution and chemistry to look at plants and plant-animal interactions and adaptations to urban environments.[8] [9] His recent work under the Global Urban Evolution Project looked at white clover populations from 160 cities to investigate responses to urban environmental change.[10] [11] [12] [13] Dr. Johnson has over 100 scientific publications. Most cited publications include; "Ecological consequences of genetic diversity", "Evolution of life in urban environments", "Assembly and ecological function of the root microbiome across angiosperm plant species".
