Cory Johnson (cell biology)
from Maine Science Podcast Hosted by Cory Johnson, Kate Dickerson
Cory grew up in Maine and after spending time as a sea kayak guide and a ski instructor, found his way to biology and laboratory research. Currently a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Haller Lab at MDI Biological Laboratory, Cory is interested in the cell biology of kidney vascularization and uses renal organoids and zebrafish to investigate how we may, one day, be able to rebuild the kidney and develop non-donor solutions to kidney transplantation. Cory was one of the 5 Minute Genius™ speakers at this past year’s Maine Science Festival; you can see his talk on our YouTube channel. This conversation was recorded in May 2025. ~~~~~ The Maine Science Podcast is a production of the Maine Discovery Museum.
