Media & Speaking

A voice the wound care world listens to.

From national podcasts to The 700 Club, from SAWC podiums to the LINK international congress stage: 25+ interviews and features, and 105 scientific presentations across three continents.

International recognition

To mark a decade of the LINK for Wound Healing framework, 10 wound care experts worldwide were invited to reflect on its impact. Dr. Johnson, featured alongside leaders from Germany, Slovakia, and beyond, described how the Wound Balance concept and BIOMES framework changed his teaching at Michigan, and previewed an extended reality wound care education project now in development.

“The lectures are consistently clear, practical and unbiased, making the learning immediately translatable to patient care and teaching.”
