About
Peter W. Laird is Professor and Peter and Emajean Cook Endowed Chair at Van Andel Institute, leading research on epigenetic mechanisms in cancer. His laboratory investigates DNA methylation abnormalities in tumorigenesis using genomic approaches and mouse models. Major contributions include developing DNA methylation analysis technologies and co-leading The Cancer Genome Atlas epigenomic projects.
Research integrates single-cell epigenomics, spatial analysis of methylation patterns, and replication-associated epigenetic changes. Work has identified methylation signatures for cancer classification and therapeutic vulnerabilities.
