Omics

Omics refers to the broad study of biological molecules that make up an organism, such as genes, proteins, or metabolites. It involves analyzing these molecules collectively to understand how they function and interact. This approach helps scientists gain a comprehensive view of biological processes, identify disease markers, and develop targeted treatments. Examples include genomics (genes), proteomics (proteins), and metabolomics (metabolites). Overall, omics provides a detailed, system-wide perspective of biology, advancing personalized medicine and our understanding of health and disease.
