Dr. Richard E. Johnsson
Richard E. Johnsson did his graduate work in carbohydrate chemistry with professor Ulf Ellervik at Lund University. After presenting his dissertation in 2008 he moved to Montréal, Canada, and worked with professor Masad J. Damha at McGill university as a postdoctoral fellow. At McGill University he worked with nucleic acid chemistry and chemical biology. After almost three years at McGill he moved to Lund University where he worked as an independent research within carbohydrate chemistry to target bacterial virulence. In 2014, he started to work at Red Glead Discovery where he since 2016 is the Chief Scientific Officer. His main research area is medicinal chemistry with focus on carbohydrates, peptides, and nucleotides.
