Associate Professor, Division of Hematology
University of Washington, Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine, Seattle, WA, USA
Jill Johnsen is an Associate Member of the Bloodworks Research Institute and Associate Professor in the Division of Hematology, Department of Medicine at the University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Her expertise and main area of research interest lies in haematology and the molecular mechanisms of haemostasis.
Dr Johnsen received her B.A. in microbiology from Miami University, Oxford, OH, and her M.D. from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH. She then undertook a residency in Internal Medicine at the University Hospitals of Cleveland and began her training studying a model of von Willebrand disease in the laboratory of Dr David Ginsburg at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. During her subsequent Assistant Professorship in Seattle, she turned her research towards basic and translational studies of human haemostasis.
Dr Johnsen’s clinical interests include von Willebrand disease, haemophilia, and rare coagulation diseases. Her research focuses on the genetics and biology of variation in clotting factors and blood groups, with emphasis on coagulation factors VIII, factor IX, von Willebrand factor, and clinically relevant blood group genes (particularly the ABO and Rh systems). Dr Johnsen has a particular interest in better understanding the changes in von Willebrand factor during pregnancy. She has been the recipient of numerous awards, including the Hemostasis and Thrombosis Research Society Mid-Career Award (2019).
