Johan Junker is an associate professor at Linköping University in Sweden, working in the Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, within the Division of Surgery, Orthopedics & Oncology. He specializes in regenerative medicine, biomaterials, and biofabrication, and has co-authored studies on bio-inks for dermal regeneration, shape-memory hydrogel filaments, and nanocellulose wound dressings with embedded sensors. Junker’s research focuses on developing new ways to heal skin and wounds that restore the skin’s full structure, including its vascular networks, rather than simply covering damaged areas.
