Jeff Johnston

Jeff Johnston is a Lecturer at the University of California, Irvine's School of Education. He specializes in ethics, physical education, and coaching sports, with a focus on integrating moral frameworks into educational contexts and developing practical coaching methodologies.

• M.S. in Sports Administration from University of Illinois
• M.A. in Social and Religious Ethics from USC

His research interests center on ethical decision-making in education, K-12 moral development, and coaching practices across age groups. While his Google Scholar publications appear to focus on neuroscience and biomedical research—spanning topics like Alzheimer's disease, sickle cell pain mechanisms, and single-cell transcriptomics—these may represent interdisciplinary collaborations or unrelated entries, as no direct connection is established in his formal bio.

Recent publications include studies on neuromodulatory effects of social isolation, neuroimmune activity in chronic disease, and computational methods for analyzing neuronal calcium signals. These articles suggest a secondary focus on neurobiology and computational health research, though this is not explicitly mentioned in his faculty profile.

As faculty advisor for the Education Theme House, Johnston contributes to student mentorship and community engagement. His contact details include the email jmjohnst@uci.edu and office phone (949) 824-6442.
