Dr. Johnsen is a physician scientist with expertise in classical (benign) hematology. She is researcher at Bloodworks Research Institute, an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington, and sees patients in the Washington Center for Bleeding Disorders (WACBD). Dr. Johnsen studies the genetics and biology of clotting factors and blood groups (blood types), with emphasis on coagulation factor VIII (FVIII), factor IX (FIX), and von Willebrand factor (VWF), and clinically relevant blood group genes, particularly in the ABO and Rh systems. Dr. Johnsen is further working to better understand the molecular basis of how inherited bleeding disorders uniquely impact females, particularly in hemophilia and von Willebrand disease.
