John V. Pearson - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

John V. Pearson is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Genetics and Computational Biology Department at the QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. His research primarily focuses on understanding the genetic and molecular underpinnings of various cancers, with a particular emphasis on endometrial cancer, melanoma, and pancreatic cancer.

Research Contributions

John V. Pearson has made significant contributions to the field of genetics and cancer research. His work on patient-derived xenograft models has provided valuable insights into the genomic heterogeneity of endometrial cancer. Additionally, his research has explored the role of DNA methylation patterns in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and has identified hereditary cancer genes involved in endometrial cancer development. He has also contributed to the understanding of immune signatures in melanoma patients and the development of guidelines for genomic research with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. His multiomic profiling of checkpoint inhibitor-treated melanoma has been instrumental in identifying predictors of response and resistance, as well as markers of biological discordance.

Aliases

John V. Pearson is also known by several aliases, including J V Pearson, John Pearson, John V Pearson, John V. Pearson, and J.v. Pearson.
