Summary
Christer Johansson is a senior expert and adjunct professor specializing in magnetic nanostructures, magnetic analysis and sensor technologies, with a PhD from Chalmers and over three decades of experience spanning academia, industry and EU research coordination. He has published 160+ peer-reviewed papers, co-invented 17+ patents and co-founded a spin-off commercializing wireless sensor systems, reflecting a rare blend of deep magnetics research and practical productization. At RISE he leads work on AC susceptometry, magnetostrictive and piezoelectric sensors and magnetic particle analysis, and previously contributed radar systems engineering at Ericsson. Beyond core research, Christer has steered multi‑partner EU projects standardizing nanoparticle analysis for biomedical applications, showing both scientific leadership and broad consortium management. Based in Västra Götaland, he combines academic roles at Chalmers with ongoing industry impact and a continual appetite for learning across physics and applied sensor engineering.
