Marc Johnson is a professor of biology at the University of Toronto Mississauga. [1] [2] He is the Canada Research Chair for Urban Environmental Science, and was the first Director of the Centre for Urban Environments from 2018-2023. [3] [2] [4] [5] [6]
Johnson obtained his Ph.D. in botany from the University of Toronto in 2007, after which he conducted an Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Postdoctoral Fellowship at Duke University. [1] [7]
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. [5] [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. [6] [10] [11] [12] [13] Dr. Johnson has over 100 scientific publications. [1] [3] Most cited publications include; "Ecological consequences of genetic diversity", [3] "Evolution of life in urban environments", [3] " Assembly and ecological function of the root microbiome across angiosperm plant species".
