Johanna Boberg

I am working as a pest risk analyst at the Unit for Risk Assessment of Plant Pests. I perform pest risk assessments and provide other scientific reports
to support the national risk management of new plant pests in Sweden.

Read more about the unit for risk assessment of plant pests here.

I have a background in research within the field of forest pathology and fungal ecology. In particular, I focused on understanding more about invasive pathogens and the factors that affect their distribution and impact, for example global trade and climate change. I have also been involved in developing methods for detection and monitoring of pathogens and participated in cross‐disciplinary projects on the potential of both ecosystems and society to handle and adapt to emerging plant pathogens.
