Genomics

Genomics is the study of the complete set of DNA (the genome) within an organism, including its structure, function, evolution, and mapping. It involves the analysis of genes, their interactions, and their influence on phenotypes. Genomics encompasses various techniques and tools for sequencing, assembling, and analyzing genetic material, enabling researchers to understand genetic variation, inheritance, and the complex regulatory networks that govern biological processes. This field has significant applications in medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, and evolutionary biology, offering insights into disease mechanisms, personalized medicine, and the development of genetically modified organisms.
