About
Per A. Peterson has made transformative contributions to genomics and virology, particularly through his pioneering work on viral gene expression and DNA microarray technology. His landmark 1999 study on human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) introduced the first viral DNA chip, enabling simultaneous profiling of nearly all open reading frames in this complex herpesvirus. This work, cited over 250 times, revolutionized the study of viral kinetics and drug sensitivity, providing a foundational tool for understanding HCMV pathogenesis and antiviral development. Peterson’s research has had a lasting impact on molecular virology, bridging genomics and therapeutic discovery. His innovative approach to high-throughput analysis of viral genomes has influenced subsequent studies in infectious disease and gene regulation. A highly respected figure in the field, Peterson’s work continues to be a key reference for researchers exploring viral biology and genomic technologies.
