Kristin Johnson
Researcher, MD

Completed my PhD in 2023 with a thesis on breast tomosynthesis in screening. My research focuses on breast cancer screening, breast cancer characteristics and artificial intelligence in screening.
I obtained my medical degree at Lund University, Sweden, in 2009 and became a specialist in radiology in 2021. I combine research with clinical work as a consultant radiologist at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden.
