Peter Malcolm Colman (born 1944) is the head of the structural biology division at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research in , Australia.

Education
Colman was educated at the University of Adelaide, where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in in 1966 and a in 1969 for research on the chemical structure of parabanic acid complexes supervised by .

Research and career
Colman's research interests are in structural biology, especially of human B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2). Colman determined the three-dimensional structure of the influenza virus neuraminidase and, in one of the earliest cases of structure-based drug design, discovered , the first-in-class neuraminidase inhibitor for . His subsequent structural studies on resistance to this drug class suggested how to design drugs against moving targets. His discoveries underpin drug stockpiling for pandemic preparedness. He has made seminal contributions to structural studies of and . Recent work on solves the long-standing problem of how pro-apoptotic Bax changes conformation to and then and permeabilise the mitochondrial membrane, an essential step in the intrinsic .
