Professor Nia Johnson will be joining Wake Forest Law from Duke University School of Law, where she served as a visiting assistant professor. Her research explores the intersection of health law, bioethics, and public health infrastructure development. She will teach torts and bioethics in the law.

Professor Wayne Logan comes to Wake Forest Law from Florida State University College of Law, where he was the Steven M. Goldstein Professor. His research focuses on criminal law, criminal procedure, and sentencing, and he will primarily teach criminal law and criminal procedure.
