Foreword

This book examines omics technologies and introduces the subject for new readers. It is particularly suitable for students (graduate, postgraduate, and doctoral), analytical scientists, and lab technicians. However, it has enough information to allow established scientists in related fields to understand the power and limitations of omics technology. Omics is a relatively new area of study and cuts across all the biological disciplines and is relevant to all biological sciences. It attempts to look at biological systems in a holistic way and to account for all the interactions between, genes, proteins, RNA, and metabolites. It is divided into various disciplines which are discussed in the book. The chapters span from genomics that studies the structure and function of the whole genomes of organisms, proteomics describing the expressed proteins in a cell or tissue,
