Johan Sommar har en magisterexamen i matematisk statistik och är docent i yrkes- och miljömedicinsk forskning vid Hållbar hälsa och bedriver forskning inom luftföroreningar, fysisk aktivitet och hälsa. Pågående projekt om hälsoeffekter av luftföroreningar handlar om betydelsen av partikelexponeringar från olika källor för mortalitet och morbiditet i form av främst hjärtkärlsjuklighet och cancer. Metodologiska fördjupningar handlar om betydelsen av luftföroreningar för subkliniska utfall som ateroskleros samt betydelsen av exponering i olika tidsfönster. Forskningsprojekten handlar också om aktiv transport, och potentialen för överföring av bilresor till cykel. Hälsovinsterna som skulle kunna åstadkommas vid överföring av bilresor till cykel beräknas i relation till fysisk aktivitet, luftföreningsexponeringen bland pendlande med cykel respektive bil samt generella befolkningen, men tar även hänsyn till olycksrisk. Studier pågår även kring nyttan av fysisk aktivitet beroende på luftföroreningsbelastningen vid hemmet.
