报告摘要

Introduction to 'OMICS'

New words ending with 'OMICS are appearing with great frequency in the new scientific vocabulary. What do these words means, and what use can be made of such data? This presentation provides an introduction to these types of words (e.g. genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics) and explains how such data is gathered and used and the limitations of processing and use of such data.
